1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: Ahead on American Sunrise. A major reversal on Capitol Hill. 2 00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:08,479 Speaker 1: The House now plans to release the ethics report about 3 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: former Congressman Matt Gates. It's a move that's stirring up 4 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:17,080 Speaker 1: tons of speculation and questions, plus the race to avert 5 00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: a government shutdown. What a mess. Speaker Mike Johnson now 6 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: reverts to Plan B whatever that is exactly after President 7 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: elect Trump and Elon Musk blast the overstuffed pork filled 8 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: continuing resolution, time running out quickly and the latest on 9 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: the drones. Did a closed door meeting on Capitol Hill 10 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 1: give us any answers about this? Or will the Biden 11 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:46,839 Speaker 1: administration's lack of transparency continue? Huh, take a wild guess. 12 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: But we go deeper those stories and more as American 13 00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 1: Sunrise starts right now. Good morning, America. 14 00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: Welcome to American Sunrise. Whether it's culture, we have breaking 15 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: news to share with you politics. 16 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,320 Speaker 1: President Trump is joining us live now from Florida. 17 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 3: You've got your couple. This is what it looks like 18 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 3: to be a patriot. We have to protect the American family. 19 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: The American dream is still alive. 20 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 1: I'm David Brody, I'm Terrence, and. 21 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 4: I'm doctor Tina. Good morning, I am doctor Gina. We 22 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 4: are live with you from the Palm Beaches. Let's bring 23 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 4: in David Brodie, he's in Washington, DC and teammates in. 24 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: Our Denver news from Good morning, gentlemen. 25 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 4: Let's get right to We've got big news this morning, 26 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 4: this bombshell report of the House Ethics Committee completely reversing 27 00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 4: course saying they are going to release former Congressman Matt 28 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 4: Gates ethics report. There was a secret vote apparently, I 29 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 4: don't even know what that means to share the report 30 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 4: in the last days of the year, mind you. Congressional 31 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 4: leaders decided not to release this last month, you'll remember. 32 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 4: So this all started, guys when President elect Donald Trump 33 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 4: nominated Gates for US Attorney General and then the left 34 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,239 Speaker 4: began its attack on him over allegations of sexual misconduct 35 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 4: with a seventeen year old girl back in twenty seventeen. 36 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 4: Terrence and David so many questions surrounding the story. Why now? 37 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 4: Why did they vote to do it at the very 38 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 4: end of the session. Ken Gates sue and stop this. 39 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 4: What is up with the secret closed door vote? Is 40 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 4: that even legal? And oh what about the millions that 41 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 4: they've doled out to settle allegations with other members? Do 42 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 4: we get to know those people's names? And oh what 43 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 4: about all the other secretness? That secretness I just made 44 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 4: up that word. I think that takes place all the 45 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 4: time in Congress. Is anyone concerned about this? Sounds like 46 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 4: retribution to me? I'm not gonna lie, but I think 47 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 4: we're a lot more interested right now. You know Matt 48 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 4: Gates has left Congress. He is not even a member. 49 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 4: For me, I'm a lot more interested in, Oh, I 50 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 4: don't know the names on the list for Epstein's Island, 51 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,640 Speaker 4: the names on I mean the Diddy list. I mean, 52 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 4: there's just a lot of lists that I'm a lot 53 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 4: more interested in a lot of transparency. I'm more interested 54 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 4: than Matt case. But if they're going to do this, 55 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: I think it should be an equal time for the 56 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 4: rest of them. What do you think, Terrence? 57 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I have so many issues with this, and 58 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 5: in principle, doctor Gene, I'm with you. 59 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 3: I want all of the reports. If you're going to 60 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 3: release one, release all of them. I'd like to see. 61 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 5: And I think the public deserves to have access to 62 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 5: all of the reports so that we can go through them. 63 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 5: Ourselves and see what we consider to be substantive not 64 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 5: but bigger picture. Let me kind of broaden the scope here. 65 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 5: I think what we're seeing right now, particularly with the 66 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 5: release of this result this report, is emblematic of a 67 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 5: vacuum of leadership or issues with leadership within the congressional 68 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 5: caucus there at the House. And more importantly, I'm wondering 69 00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 5: if this is misdirection, if this is a diversion from 70 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 5: the issues that are related to the continuing resolution and 71 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 5: the fact that it seems like everybody and their mother 72 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 5: got some sort of pet project in there, and that 73 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 5: so much of our tax dollars is being spilt spent. David, 74 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 5: I'm sorry it Diversion is what this seems to be. 75 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 5: It just seems to be a diversion, particularly coming out 76 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 5: of the blue. 77 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Matt Gates has a lot of enemies in Congress, 78 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: and I think that's what this is about. I think 79 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: it's also a revenge of Kevin McCarthy somehow somewhere he's 80 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 1: got his tentacles in this. And we'll find out more 81 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: from Tim Burchett later on in the second hour here 82 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: when he'll be on and talk about it. But beyond 83 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: all of that. I don't think people are around the 84 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: kitchen table this morning going, hey, what's the latest on 85 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: Matt Gates. I mean, I think people have a lot 86 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: of other things to think about. Having said that, this 87 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: is going, this is gonna be a report that's gonna 88 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: it's gonna be probably pretty specific. He's already been out 89 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: and saying, look, I wasn't the best guy back in 90 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: whatever it was a decade ago, but that's not the 91 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: guy I am today. So we'll see, we'll see, Jim. 92 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 4: All right, well, let's do this. Let's start the day right. 93 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 4: Let's check out today's Bible verse. It's from Matthew six 94 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 4: thirty three, and it read, but seek you first the 95 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,279 Speaker 4: Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all of these 96 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 4: things shall be added unto you. Let's also get right 97 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 4: to Tennessee Senator Marsha Blackburn is to talk about the 98 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 4: failed stop gap bill. 99 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 2: To fund Congress. 100 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 4: Time is ticking as Wall Street just had one of 101 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 4: its worst days ever. President Trump and Vice President elect JD. 102 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 4: Vance are both demanding the GOP leaders allow the federal 103 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 4: government to shut down. Trump and Vans want Republicans to 104 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 4: call the Democrats bluff if the dims threatened to shut 105 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 4: down the government to get they what they want, and 106 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 4: so it's going to continue to be very interesting. Senator Blackburn, 107 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 4: what are your thoughts this morning though as to where 108 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 4: everything stands. 109 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 6: What the bill was, the fifteen hundred page bill that 110 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 6: they sent us was just crammed full of all sorts 111 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,039 Speaker 6: of special interests in Gina. It was things many of 112 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,840 Speaker 6: us looked at and said, hey, wait a minute, you 113 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 6: can't do this. What we need is a clean cr 114 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 6: that continues funding for a period of time so that 115 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 6: President Trump can get in office and then we can 116 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 6: begin to reduce what the federal government is spending and 117 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 6: get busy with DOGE and actually make some cuts. But 118 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 6: you can't go plusing up the budget and then say, okay, 119 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,119 Speaker 6: in another week and a half, we're going to cut 120 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 6: it and have those cuts be meaningful. So a better 121 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 6: product needs to come forward, a simple continuing resolution, and 122 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 6: we need to finish this out, not have a government 123 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 6: shut down, and then allow the Republican Senate and Republican 124 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 6: House to move forward after January third. 125 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 5: Senator Blackburn, I've got a number of questions, so I'll 126 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 5: try to condense them into one. Are you expecting a 127 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 5: shut down or will a new rewritten CR be presented 128 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 5: to you here within the next several hours and potentially 129 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 5: be passed before the weekend, and then beyond that. I'm 130 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 5: looking kind of into June, where the debt ceiling is 131 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 5: going to have to be decided, and all of this 132 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 5: seems to set the foundation for a challenging debate when 133 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 5: it comes to the debt ceiling in June. 134 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 6: You're correct about that, and we do expect that we 135 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 6: will have a new CR that is going to be 136 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 6: presented within a few hours. Many of us have weighed 137 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 6: in on things that should or should not be taken up. 138 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 6: There's a lot of loose ends that need to be 139 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 6: tied up this year. The disaster relief for those of 140 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 6: us that have counties that were affected by Hurricane Helene, 141 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,120 Speaker 6: and of course up in the Smoky Mountains, we have 142 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 6: several Tennessee counties that were affected by that My Kids 143 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 6: Online Safety Act. All issues have been resolved around that. 144 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 6: If they put it on the floor of the House, 145 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 6: it would get about four hundred votes. Speaker Johnson has 146 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:10,840 Speaker 6: been blocking that bill. That's a bill that everyone is 147 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 6: ready to vote on. So these are things that the 148 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 6: American people are looking at and saying, hey, wait a minute, 149 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 6: let's get the people's business done. And I think it's 150 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 6: important for us to do it. 151 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 1: I really can't understand, Senator Blackburn, why in the world 152 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: a clean CR wasn't just brought up in the first place. 153 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: I mean, this is fifteen hundred pages, fifteen eighty seven 154 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: The last CR clean CR twenty one pages. This is 155 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: five hundred and eighty seven pages, and including in that, 156 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: they have language in here they want to change. They 157 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:45,400 Speaker 1: want to redefine homeless individuals to quote individuals experiencing homelessness. 158 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 1: They want to redefine low skill adults to quote adults 159 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: with foundational skill needs. I mean, there's so much wokeness 160 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: in this, and that's just the beginning. Not to mention 161 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: pay raises for Congress and all that. But let me 162 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 1: move on, because you know, I want to on something 163 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 1: very important, because you brought up these Doze Acts package, 164 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: a package of bills which basically aim to reduce federal 165 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: agency spending. Senator, you want to trim the federal workforce 166 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 1: so much more so, how much headway have you gotten 167 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: on this? Talk to us a little bit about it. 168 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: You've introduced it in this Congress. I'm assuming it'll be 169 00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: obviously in the next Congress. And you have Elon Musk 170 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: coming on board here with the vik Ramaswami. So's the 171 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 1: what are the chances of some of this getting done? 172 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 1: And tell our audience some of the details here. 173 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 6: Yes, indeed, the Doze Acts is a package of bills 174 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 6: that I have. It includes one, two and five percent 175 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 6: across the board discretionary spending cuts and David is you 176 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,439 Speaker 6: know that's important to be able to cut into that 177 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 6: baseline in these different departments in order to get us 178 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 6: started on this. What it does is to freeze federal 179 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 6: hiring and federal spending salaries so that you're not plusing 180 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 6: up and adding positions and then trying to turn around 181 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 6: and cut positions. So it caps that in essence, that 182 00:10:08,360 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 6: is a hiring and salary cap It also requires people 183 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 6: to return to work. We know that less than ten 184 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 6: percent of the federal workforce is going to work five 185 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 6: days a week in person, and only twelve percent a 186 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 6: federal office space is being occupied. So requires that return 187 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 6: to work and then moving from a seniority based pay 188 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,960 Speaker 6: raise system, meaning the longer you're employed by the federal 189 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:41,559 Speaker 6: government the money, more money you make to a merit 190 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 6: based system. Another component is moving non security, non defense 191 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 6: agencies outside of Washington d C. We think these are 192 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 6: good government basic steps. It will serve to help reduce 193 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 6: the size of the federal government and to reduce the 194 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 6: spending by cutting into the baseline and by capping federal 195 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 6: hiring and federal salaries. 196 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 4: All right, Senator, we want to get your take because 197 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:15,719 Speaker 4: I know our audience wants to know all these drones 198 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 4: on the East coast, what are you hearing from your 199 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 4: constituents in Tennessee? And also do you know if lawmakers 200 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:26,359 Speaker 4: on Capitol Hill have more answers or have been left clueless? 201 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:31,359 Speaker 4: After the House Intel Committee is classified briefing on Tuesday. 202 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 6: There is no further detailed information that has been given 203 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 6: to us. And for DoD to continue to say this 204 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 6: is perfectly harmless when all across the country, not just 205 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 6: the East Coast, but scattered around the country, you're beginning 206 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 6: to see these drones and Gina, these are not drones 207 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 6: that you would run to the store and buy. These 208 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 6: are large drones. And after the spy balloon session to 209 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:08,080 Speaker 6: post the country, then we know that this is an issue. 210 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 6: People want to know who it is. I'm one of 211 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 6: those that says, shoot one of these things down so 212 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 6: we can find out where it is made and what 213 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:20,960 Speaker 6: kind of information they're gathering. 214 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, Senator Marcia Blackburn, thank you so much for. 215 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: Being with us. 216 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 6: Delighted to join you. 217 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 7: Thank you. 218 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 4: Having Merry Christmas too.

Excuse me, he gets underway today 242 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 5: at the Phoenix Convention Center. 243 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 3: Our special guest that will be Brian Glenn. He is 244 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 3: going to be. 245 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 5: There at the festival itself later on, but this morning 246 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 5: he is up and at him brighton early with us 247 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 5: here to talk about some of the issues going on 248 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,080 Speaker 5: in Capitol Hill. Brian, first of all, good morning to you, 249 00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 5: and let's just get right to it. That continuing resolution 250 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 5: debacle is likely going to be the conversation of the 251 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 5: day there at Amfest. 252 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 10: It is, and I will say this speaker Mike Johnson 253 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 10: is scheduled to appear here at Amfest. I got to 254 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 10: check the schedule each either Saturday or Sunday. I'm guessing 255 00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 10: that Congress will still be in session on Friday, so 256 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 10: he likely won't be here on Friday, So what we 257 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 10: the action will he get when he's announced to come 258 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 10: out and speak to the crowd here. But yes, that 259 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 10: is the number one issue right now, Terrence, is this 260 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 10: continuing resolution and how do we fund the government? 261 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 5: So Brian I will talk leadership here in a minute 262 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 5: and Mike Johnson, but first let's just get to the 263 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 5: nuts and bolts. What are you hearing from your sources 264 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 5: on Capitol Hill in terms of a revised continuing Resolution 265 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 5: and getting something not just on the books but potentially 266 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,560 Speaker 5: passed before the end of the session. Or can we 267 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 5: expect a government shut down? 268 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 10: I think it's a fifty to fifty whether or not 269 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 10: we have a government shut down or not. I really do. 270 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 10: I think as we as we go further into this, 271 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 10: we could be looking at that on Friday. Now. I 272 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 10: think what we're all discovering is just how much garbage 273 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 10: is in this. 274 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 3: And we've known. 275 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 10: This was going to take place, We've had this date 276 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 10: on the books for a long time. But like I 277 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 10: said the other day, I feel like a college kid 278 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:59,480 Speaker 10: that's cramming for an exam the night before just trying 279 00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 10: to push it out out fifteen hundred pages. Now, let 280 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 10: me explain to you who actually writes this stuff. These 281 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 10: are staffers on the hill from Republican and Democrat, and 282 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 10: they've all got their little pet peeve, they've all got 283 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 10: their little projects, they've all got their agenda, and they 284 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 10: submit it all it goes into one big pile. You 285 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 10: got fifteen hundred pages. Now, obviously it's almost impossible to 286 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 10: read all of this terrence. And if they go by 287 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 10: the rules that Republicans set this last session seventy two 288 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 10: hour role, which means they have to be able to 289 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 10: read it and cannot vote on it until seventy two hours, 290 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 10: that pushes us to Friday. 291 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 3: Brian, just very quickly thirty seconds. Talk about leadership. 292 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 5: There in the house, is Mike Johnson in battle now, 293 00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 5: because this really falls in his lap. 294 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 3: It does. 295 00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 10: And you know what, when you look at what people 296 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 10: are saying online and sometimes don't go to the comments, 297 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 10: we all know that comment he is getting, you know, butchered. 298 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 10: A lot of people say, look, he needs to stand up, 299 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 10: you know, he can no long longer run and look 300 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 10: for some shelter with President Trump. Now, I will say 301 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 10: this Terrence Dave. I think that this might be the 302 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 10: time for President Trump to actually go to Washington, and 303 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 10: I think he needs to meet with Mike Johnson, and 304 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 10: he needs to meet with Republicans and Democrats and let's 305 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 10: get this thing done that's best for the American people. Look, 306 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 10: I think it's great if Trump can get in there 307 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 10: and help. I mean, why not. He's president elect, but 308 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 10: he's might as well just be president right. 309 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 5: Now, right and ultimately he's going to be responsible. Brian 310 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 5: Glenn reporting for US this morning in Phoenix, Arizona.

Ahead, Michael Mellum will sound 315 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,400 Speaker 5: off on the White House not giving concrete information on 316 00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 5: the sightings. Next though, taking on voke ideology. President like 317 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 5: Donald Trump ready to reign in the lefties in their 318 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 5: woke education. But how soon will he act?

Indeed, I did have 325 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,119 Speaker 11: a relationship with miss Lewinsky that was not appropriate, In fact, 326 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 11: it was wrong. 327 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:40,919 Speaker 5: It was on this day in nineteen ninety eight, that 328 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 5: the US House of Representatives voted to impeach Bill Clinton 329 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,919 Speaker 5: over his affair within White House intern Minica Lewinsky. The 330 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 5: House agreed that there was enough evidence to forward the 331 00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 5: articles of impeachment to the US Selector Trial. 332 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 3: We're back in a moment. 333 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: From Louisville, Kentucky.

It's a big financial worry for Americans. 340 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:46,360 Speaker 1: Hospital costs obviously burning through wallets, the cost of prescription 341 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: drugs more and more outrageous. Let's discuss this more with 342 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 1: Andy Mangioni AMAX Action senior vice president who is down 343 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: there in Louisville, has been for over fifteen years. Andy, 344 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: Good to see you, sir. So I'll tell you what 345 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 1: AMAC Action has been lobbying for years for. I guess 346 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 1: what is known as Pharmacy Benefit Manager reform the PBM. 347 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 1: And now there are provisions in the year end package, 348 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: at least at this point that address it. We'll see 349 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: what happens in the final package. So tell us more 350 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: about this and why it's important to Americans. And oh, 351 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 1: by the way, good morning Andy. 352 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 12: Good morning David. If there could be a silver lining 353 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 12: to the mess, that is the continued resolution process, a 354 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 12: process that AMAC Action very much would like to see reformed. 355 00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 12: By the way, it's the Pharmacy Benefit Manager reform provisions. 356 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 12: There are four key provisions to this reform. The first 357 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:43,400 Speaker 12: is increased transparency. Well, this would do would require PBMs 358 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 12: to disclose rebates and fees and price concessions for manufacturers 359 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 12: and this would enhance transparency and drug pricing and it 360 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 12: aims to reduce costs for consumers and medicare. Another provision 361 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 12: is the prohibition of spread pricing. This is a tactic 362 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 12: that PBMs use to charge payers more for medications, then 363 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 12: they reimburse pharmacies. This would reduce successive pricing practices, ensures 364 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,760 Speaker 12: fair payments to pharmacies, and David, importantly, this provision alone 365 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 12: could help to keep rural pharmacies in business. Another provision 366 00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 12: is the pass through of rebates. This ensures that rebates 367 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 12: negotiated by PBMs with drug manufacturers are passed through to 368 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 12: health plans or patients. This would directly reduce out of 369 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 12: pocket costs for patients, especially those with high drug expenses. 370 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 12: And another and the last key provision here in this reform, 371 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:40,400 Speaker 12: this is what we're so excited about, is oversight. These 372 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 12: provisions and this reform would strengthen federal and state oversight 373 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 12: of PBM activities they're anti competitive business practices, to bring 374 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,880 Speaker 12: them into compliance with new transparency and pricing rules. Now, 375 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 12: most of these provisions, David, are budget neutral, and if 376 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 12: this current bill is renegotiated, we certainly hope that PBM 377 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 12: reform is included in another bill, and if it's not, 378 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 12: we'll continue with our mission to lower drug costs for 379 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 12: seniors and all Americans through PBM reform by working directly 380 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,479 Speaker 12: with the Trump administration. 381 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 4: And the AMAC Action had a very successful year advocating 382 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,440 Speaker 4: on behalf of AMAC members. What were some of the 383 00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 4: most significant victories that meant the most to you personally 384 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 4: in twenty twenty. 385 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 12: Four, Well, we ran a good morning, doctor, you know, 386 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 12: we ran twenty four I take that back. We ran 387 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 12: Call the Action campaigns in forty one states throughout twenty 388 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 12: twenty four, and we were successful in getting good bills 389 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,719 Speaker 12: passed and getting bad ones stopped. In twenty one states. 390 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 12: AMAC members helped to get legislation passed that protects women's 391 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 12: safe spaces like locker rooms, shelters and restrooms, protect children 392 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 12: from the radical transgender agenda, prevent non citizens from voting, 393 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 12: and stopped ranked choice voting in the other states. We 394 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 12: successfully recruited twenty five hundred AMAC members to service poll 395 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 12: workers election observers in critical states like mission in Wisconsin, Nevada, 396 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 12: and Pennsylvania, which we're all won by President Trump. It 397 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 12: was a busy, busy year as a very successful year, 398 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 12: and we're just getting geared up for twenty twenty five. 399 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 5: Andy, Just in case you were wondering, Yes, I do 400 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 5: pay very close attention to every single thing you say. 401 00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 5: You mentioned a little while ago that AMAC is lobbying 402 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,920 Speaker 5: Congress to try to change the budgeting process in light 403 00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 5: of this debacle that we're dealing with right now. What 404 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 5: are some of the specific changes AMAC would like to 405 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 5: see and is pushing for. 406 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 12: Well, you know, we're disappointed. You know who's running con 407 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 12: First of all, let's take a step back. Joe Biden 408 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 12: is still president, Chuck Schumer is still running the Senate. 409 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 12: This is the process that we have and it's broken, 410 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 12: and we were told that it would be fixed and 411 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,479 Speaker 12: it's not. What kind of I find somewhat hypocritical are 412 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 12: these members of Congress that are running around saying the 413 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 12: process is broken, the process is broken, and then don't 414 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 12: do anything to fix it. We want to hold them 415 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 12: accountable to fix this budgeting process so we don't have 416 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 12: your end debacles like this. There are some good things 417 00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 12: in this continuing Resolution. You have to sift through to 418 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 12: dig him out, and the way the process is, it's 419 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 12: almost impossible to do. So this needs to be simplified 420 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:07,639 Speaker 12: and Congress needs to be engaged on that. We're going 421 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 12: to hold them accountable for this process. 422 00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, one, five hundred and eighty seven pages definitely not simplified. 423 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: When the last CR was twenty one pages. Ridiculous and 424 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: and by the way, in this last CR, I say, 425 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 1: the last year, the one that they just put up 426 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: this week nine pages is the continuing resolution. That's it. 427 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:26,879 Speaker 1: The rest of it. 428 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 3: What is that? 429 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 1: Five hundred and seventy nine pages, all add ons, all 430 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 1: add ons, I mean, it's insane. And he talk to 431 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 1: us a little bit about what you want to see 432 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: this Trump administration get done in twenty twenty five. What 433 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: are some of the early goals, kind of even long 434 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: term goals. If you're sitting in a room in the 435 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:45,359 Speaker 1: White House there with Trump, what are you telling him? 436 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:46,440 Speaker 1: What is AMAC telling them? 437 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,159 Speaker 12: Well, it's Christmas and this is our wish list and 438 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 12: it may sound never familiar. Okay, we would love to 439 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 12: see the border wall the construction resumed. We want to 440 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,479 Speaker 12: see the Trump tax cuts made permanent, which would greatly 441 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 12: help small businesses. We'd like to see legislation that would 442 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 12: stop the taxing of Social Security, which would greatly impact 443 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 12: AMAC members. And we'd like to see the safeguarding this 444 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 12: is in the first one hundred days. 445 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 13: We'd like to. 446 00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:15,760 Speaker 12: See safeguarding the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility Act, the Save Act. 447 00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:17,639 Speaker 12: We'd like to see that passed. We got it through 448 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 12: the House last Congress. We want to get it through 449 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,000 Speaker 12: the Senate and on to Presidents Trump's desk. And if 450 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 12: you recall, this bill would prevent non citizens from voting 451 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,919 Speaker 12: in our federal elections and for states to clean up 452 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 12: their voter roles. Now, on a long term basis, over 453 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,399 Speaker 12: the years of the administration, we want to engage with 454 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 12: the Trump administration on stabilizing Social Security. And in the 455 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,959 Speaker 12: healthcare space, we want to work for comprehensive pharmacy benefit 456 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 12: manager reform, healthcare price transparency, and the reform of group 457 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:50,320 Speaker 12: purchasing organizations business practices. So we've got a pretty healthy 458 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 12: agenda set. 459 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 1: For sure, Andy, AMAC members are really in the process 460 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 1: of saving America.

Speaking of salt, 507 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 4: don't forget snacks like nuts and chips will perhaps not 508 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 4: be the healthiest options for you, so go grab some 509 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 4: nuts instead, or even some veggie sticks with some hummus. Also, 510 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 4: crackers and breadsticks might not be the healthiest options. You 511 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 4: can maybe find oat or rice cakes. These will also 512 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:56,000 Speaker 4: help up your fiber intake over the holidays. Here's something 513 00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,320 Speaker 4: that'll help you cut. 514 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,640 Speaker 2: Back on saturated fats. Reduced fat. 515 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 4: No, you don't want to use reduced fat creams or 516 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 4: Greek yogurt, and now I can't even say that. 517 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 2: I mean, you can use Greek yogurt. 518 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 4: I think that's fine, but the reduced fat is actually 519 00:29:07,160 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 4: terrible because they put fillers in it. So you don't 520 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 4: want to eat that at all. But you want to 521 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 4: stay away from all the processed stuff that helps your 522 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 4: gut microbiome health. And just make sure that when you're 523 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 4: buying all of these foods you try for the healthiest options. 524 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 4: Good fats, good amounts of salts, low on sugars, especially, 525 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 4: low on processing, and low. 526 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 2: On seed oils. 527 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 4: And you want to say also probably want to be 528 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 4: low on those, you know, pesticides that we're reading all 529 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 4: about in the news right now.

We're actually 582 00:31:47,640 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: talking drones, lots of them. Let's welcome in. Michael Melam, 583 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: mayor of Bellevue, New Jersey, Mayor Melhem, welcome to the 584 00:31:55,440 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 1: show week time. No, thank you, Jane, but thank you 585 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 1: for the challenge. I appreciate that. Hey, Mayor, did you 586 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: hear what Joe Biden had to say about these drones? 587 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 1: Please take a listen, and by the way, you might 588 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: want to put on your Joe Biden translator headphones on 589 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: because I don't know what the heck he's talking about 590 00:32:15,480 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 1: here it is. I think it's just one week because 591 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 1: a lot of drones authorized. 592 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 11: We set up there. 593 00:32:23,280 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: I think you once started and they all guys, everybody 594 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: you want to get in the deal, I got nothing, 595 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: Mayor to you. 596 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 14: Yeah, that's been the administration's talking points. I mean, here 597 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,160 Speaker 14: in New Jersey, we've been under siege now for four 598 00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 14: weeks and we still have more questions than answers. 599 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 13: We have gotten nothing. 600 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 14: As New Jersey mayors, five hundred of us, we're at 601 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 14: an unprecedented meeting about a week ago here in New Jersey, 602 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 14: and just Monday we actually joined the White House on 603 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,640 Speaker 14: a call where all they kept saying is nothing to 604 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 14: see here. 605 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 13: There's nothing to see here. 606 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 14: We're seeing things, we're seeing mostly mancraft. There's no nefarious threat, 607 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,360 Speaker 14: there's nothing to be worried about. Yet our resident have 608 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,200 Speaker 14: six foot drones hovering over their homes. 609 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I have friends in New Jersey who 610 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:09,720 Speaker 4: have sent me photographs and videos of these drones, and 611 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 4: I can't believe how prolific they are. I mean, I 612 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 4: don't know if that's really being communicated. And like you said, 613 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 4: these are manned drones. These are not like the little 614 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 4: things you go buy right at Walgreens because you're late 615 00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 4: on the Christmas present, right, These are really different, a 616 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 4: different thing. Do we know what a drone of this 617 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 4: size is capable of them? Do we have speculation as to. 618 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:33,640 Speaker 2: What might be a non nefarious motive they're there? 619 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 14: That's the million dollar question here. We've been told that 620 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,160 Speaker 14: they're hovering over our critical infrastructure. We've been told that 621 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 14: they emit no radio frequency, which is why we can't 622 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 14: jam them, which is why we're having difficulty tracking them. 623 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 14: We were also told by our state police that we 624 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 14: have no idea where they're coming from, and we have 625 00:33:48,920 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 14: no idea where they're landing. But the problem that we're 626 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 14: having here is the communication from our FEDS. Are you 627 00:33:54,400 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 14: just saw our president basically say wow, there's you know, 628 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,479 Speaker 14: a million drones out there and eight hundred thousand pilots 629 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 14: having is The House Intelligence Committee came out of a 630 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 14: classified briefing and said nothing to see here. Our Foreign 631 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 14: Affairs chairman came out and said he thinks it's China, 632 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,799 Speaker 14: And yet another congress person came out and said it's 633 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 14: an Iranian mothership off our coast. We're getting really concerned here, 634 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,800 Speaker 14: and the FEDS need to get their story straight. 635 00:34:17,760 --> 00:34:20,439 Speaker 1: I mean, if this was like eighteen twenty three, someone 636 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: go out with a shotgun and shoot that thing down. 637 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: If there were a drone in eighteen twenty three, which 638 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 1: in first or would not be. But what can you 639 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 1: do as mayor? I mean, how much are your hands tied? 640 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: What can you do? How do you work with local 641 00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 1: law enforcement if you will? 642 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 14: Our hands on the ground are totally tied. And that's 643 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 14: the frustration, because as mayors, we are the closest people 644 00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 14: to the ground to our residents. Our residents come to 645 00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 14: us for answers, for a direction, we go to our state. 646 00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 14: Our state has been inept. I mean our governor had 647 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 14: two hundred plus press conferences for COVID and has barely 648 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,320 Speaker 14: spoken on this topic, which is ridiculous. We're not getting 649 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,799 Speaker 14: the answers from them. They're not getting the answers from 650 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 14: the FEDS. And the fed's communications are all over the place. 651 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:00,280 Speaker 14: And again I keep saying, the lack of transp parents 652 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,720 Speaker 14: and lack of truth here is doing nothing but fuel 653 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 14: social media conspiracies. 654 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:07,120 Speaker 4: And instead of answering the questions that you're asking, Mayor, 655 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 4: they're talking about that they need increased federal government powers. 656 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 2: What's your answer to that. 657 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,479 Speaker 14: I mean, that's a total joke. I mean, the federal 658 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,280 Speaker 14: government's in charge of our airways. They're over the FAA, 659 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 14: which is why we can't do local bans on or 660 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 14: we actually ask for a temporary ban on personal and 661 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 14: commercial drones. We can't do it here locally. Our government 662 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 14: in New Jersey cannot do that. This is all on 663 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 14: the FED. Listen, we don't need more laws, we don't 664 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 14: need more equipment. We need truth and we need transparency. 665 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:34,839 Speaker 14: We need it now. 666 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: Thank you so much, mister Mayor. I really appreciate you 667 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: being here. Thank you. Have a good Christmas. Appreciate it all. Right, 668 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: straight ahead, how do we keep ourselves and our families 669 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: focused on Jesus during the holidays. We'll talk about that first, though, 670 00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 1: eliminating woke in America's education is one of many a 671 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: President Trump's plans to make America great again. So what 672 00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: tactics should the President use to rid our country of 673 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 1: woke ideology? Back talking about that, we start the fund intimates. 674 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:36,360 Speaker 3: Welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm Terrance Bates. 675 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,879 Speaker 5: We appreciate you starting your Thursday morning with us here 676 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 5: on American Sunrise. It is now time to stay awake, 677 00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,480 Speaker 5: not woke. And President like Donald Trump, is ready to 678 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 5: withhold federal funds to any school, college, or university that 679 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 5: teaches woke ideologies or even promotes woke policies. In fact, 680 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 5: President Trump has said that he was thinking about this 681 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 5: for quite some time. The big question is now that 682 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 5: magnet controls all three of government, will President Trump in 683 00:37:02,160 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 5: fact be successful in doing away with the Department of 684 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,839 Speaker 5: Education like he's talked? More importantly, will he be able 685 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 5: to get our students back on the right learning track. 686 00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 5: Let's bring in doctor Gina and David to talk a 687 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 5: bit more about this. Doctor Gena, I'm going to start 688 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,359 Speaker 5: with you because I know you're a proponent of homeschooling 689 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 5: as opposed to public public education. So I'll let you 690 00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 5: take first swing at this one. 691 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 4: Well, I mean, it doesn't matter what the education is. 692 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 4: We know that, for example, Abraham Lincoln was schooled pretty 693 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 4: much by his mom and a Bible, and that's pretty 694 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,120 Speaker 4: much all they had. I think they had just a 695 00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:38,080 Speaker 4: couple of other books. They learned, of course, by candlelight. 696 00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 4: So whenever my children complained about their homeschooling conditions, that 697 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,600 Speaker 4: their chairs were too hard or whatever, I reminded them 698 00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 4: that at least they didn't have to learn by candlelight. 699 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:50,239 Speaker 4: And you know, back in those days, you look at 700 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 4: the brilliance that was cultivated because first of all, no 701 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 4: one loves that child like a parent, And secondly, Noah's 702 00:37:56,880 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 4: going to take the time and the investment in child 703 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,920 Speaker 4: that a parent is, and that even if that means 704 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:05,359 Speaker 4: picking a curriculum and having a tutor come in, which 705 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,800 Speaker 4: can be much less expensive, by the way, than private 706 00:38:07,840 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 4: schooling and so on. But and people are saying, well, okay, 707 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 4: you're talking about about not undergrad about elementary school and 708 00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,759 Speaker 4: high school. No, actually, I am talking to also about 709 00:38:20,880 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 4: a university, because now you can do many universities distance 710 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 4: learning programs and in a lot of ways, sometimes they're 711 00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 4: actually better than in classroom where a lot of times 712 00:38:31,640 --> 00:38:32,960 Speaker 4: all you have to do to get a grade in 713 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 4: a classroom is show up and you don't really have 714 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 4: to listen, and you don't really I had classes that 715 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:37,359 Speaker 4: were complete joke. 716 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:38,360 Speaker 2: We all did in college. 717 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,480 Speaker 4: Didn't you have classes where once in. 718 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 3: A while I struggled. 719 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,719 Speaker 4: There were classes where you just even if it was 720 00:38:45,760 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 4: just a pe class or whatever, you just had to 721 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,240 Speaker 4: pretty much show up, and at least in my experience 722 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 4: in some cases, but I was in school college for 723 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 4: what twelve years or something insane, But you know, you 724 00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 4: can't blow it off when it's all on you and 725 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:02,239 Speaker 4: your customs. I'm making a class to fit what your 726 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 4: needs are, and that's happening all the time now. So 727 00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 4: we're getting children, we're getting students that are much more 728 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 4: highly educated, that have a lot better street smarts because 729 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 4: they've learned what they need to learn to go into 730 00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:16,880 Speaker 4: the careers they need to go into it and listen. 731 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 4: I'm still a big advocate too, of tech schools and 732 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,360 Speaker 4: trade schools because I think they're a lot closer, a 733 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 4: lot closer to the heart of the family, and I 734 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 4: think I don't like the idea of my kids going 735 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:27,360 Speaker 4: away for school. 736 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 2: But I know the kids do. 737 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 4: Not judging just saying they're woke, And it doesn't even 738 00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 4: matter if you're in the most conservative place in the world. 739 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 2: They're still woke. 740 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,799 Speaker 4: And some of the religious ones are quite woke as well. 741 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:40,080 Speaker 1: David Bradie, that's such a good point. And higher education 742 00:39:40,280 --> 00:39:43,240 Speaker 1: is off the reservation if you will. You know, going 743 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,040 Speaker 1: back to a little bit about where Trump's going to 744 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 1: go with this, with the administrates is going to go 745 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,680 Speaker 1: with this, one of the tools in the arsenal will 746 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:53,120 Speaker 1: be at the NIH. You know, the NIH. The new 747 00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:56,319 Speaker 1: ANIH director has talked that's going to be coming in 748 00:39:57,080 --> 00:40:00,200 Speaker 1: to replace Fauci has talked about we're going to allow 749 00:40:00,320 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 1: NIH grants based on free speech rankings to these higher 750 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 1: education places. 751 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 3: Colleges and universities. 752 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. I mean Harvard is the worst. I 753 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,280 Speaker 1: mean they when I say worst, that's not my opinion, 754 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 1: that's actual rank free speech rankings. They've done this. It's 755 00:40:16,960 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: called the I'll give you the exact name. It's called 756 00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 1: the Foundation. I've got it right here. Sorry, yeah, they've 757 00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,240 Speaker 1: got sorry about that. It's called the Foundation for Individual 758 00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:30,320 Speaker 1: Rights and Expression. That's what the new NHI NIAH structor 759 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 1: is going to be going off of They're going to 760 00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 1: look at free speech rankings and actually Harvard six hundred 761 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,960 Speaker 1: and seventy six million dollars they received to have from 762 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: NIH for grants, and the new NIH structor is saying, 763 00:40:42,880 --> 00:40:45,760 Speaker 1: hold on for a second, that's not happening. So Columbia, Harvard, 764 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:52,239 Speaker 1: all these not free speech higher institution colleges and universities 765 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 1: are going to have a lot of that funding cut. 766 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 1: And I think terns out'd be one way the Trump 767 00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: administration goes about doing it. 768 00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 5: It's going to be interesting to see how all of 769 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:05,200 Speaker 5: this ultimately plays out, particularly after January twentieth, how quickly 770 00:41:05,280 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 5: or how successful President Trump may be in doing away 771 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 5: with the Department of Education, for instance. More importantly, and 772 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 5: I do love this idea really giving more power back 773 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,000 Speaker 5: to local governments, back to the states in terms of 774 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:22,160 Speaker 5: deciding how education funds are used and how education looks 775 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 5: in individual communities. I think a lot of parents will 776 00:41:24,760 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 5: have more control, which ultimately is the goal. 777 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:26,959 Speaker 3: Guys. 778 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 5: But this is a conversation we could continue to have 779 00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 5: probably for a whole other day. 780 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,200 Speaker 3: And we still wouldn't have exhausted it. Coming up. 781 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 5: So much competition nowadays for our attention. But one thing 782 00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:40,000 Speaker 5: that you should never lose sight on is Jesus Christ. 783 00:41:40,440 --> 00:42:00,320 Speaker 15: We'll talk about that next in our Moment of Days. 784 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,320 Speaker 9: In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth. 785 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 1: We should get that guy on the show. That's a 786 00:42:16,560 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 1: good voice, that's a great voice. I want that voice. 787 00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 1: I covet Welcome back everybody to American Centrize on David Brody. 788 00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: It's almost Friday time now for our Moment of Faith 789 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: brought to us by Lee Greenwood and the God bless 790 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:30,600 Speaker 1: the USA. Bible in focus today. Keeping your eyes on 791 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 1: Jesus during Christmas, so I'll remember that it's about celebrating 792 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 1: the birth of our Savior. It isn't about the presence 793 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 1: or the decoration or the food. Though my stomach may 794 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: disagree when it comes to the food, but that's not 795 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,560 Speaker 1: the point. It's my brain, not my stomach here to 796 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,799 Speaker 1: talk about ways to focus on Jesus at Christmas time. 797 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: Is Chamaine Nugent, host of Faith and Freedom.

When I was in college, I was thirty 808 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 16: pounds heavier than I am now, and I made a 809 00:43:25,360 --> 00:43:27,439 Speaker 16: promise to God if I figured out some of these 810 00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,680 Speaker 16: health issues that I've had, including getting sick and almost 811 00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 16: dying from toxic mold, if I figured it out, I 812 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 16: would share it with everybody else.

And I think 816 00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 16: that's what you know. As we grow older, we look 817 00:43:51,239 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 16: at Christmas the season. The reason for this season is 818 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 16: us Jesus Christ, and it brings us so much hope 819 00:43:57,680 --> 00:44:00,880 Speaker 16: and so much joy. As we approach to twenty five, 820 00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 16: and I'm so inspired by President Trump's leadership and Robert F. 821 00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:09,840 Speaker 16: Kennedy Junior for honoring this country and for wanting to 822 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:13,799 Speaker 16: make America not only great again, but healthy again. So 823 00:44:13,960 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 16: it's a great spirit of renewal. It's a time for celebration. 824 00:44:17,960 --> 00:44:22,280 Speaker 16: And yeah, I'm excited to offer this book abundantly. Well, 825 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 16: I know it will change lives. 826 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 1: Well, Chamaine, this physical and the spiritual really go hand 827 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 1: in hand. The body is the temple. And how do 828 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:34,760 Speaker 1: we keep ourselves and our families focused on Jesus, because 829 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 1: they really do go hand in hand.

House Ethics Committee members reportedly held 938 00:49:49,680 --> 00:49:52,680 Speaker 5: a secret vote earlier this month to release that report, 939 00:49:52,880 --> 00:49:56,280 Speaker 5: after initially saying that the details of the investigation would 940 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 5: not be released because Gates was no longer a member 941 00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 5: of Congress and Congress thus no longer had jurisdiction. Responding 942 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:06,360 Speaker 5: to the reporting on XS, Skates writing, I was charged 943 00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:10,360 Speaker 5: with nothing fully exonerated, not even a campaign finance violation, 944 00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:13,839 Speaker 5: and the people investigating me hated me. I've had no 945 00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:17,240 Speaker 5: chance to ever confront any concuser. I've never been charged, 946 00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:21,040 Speaker 5: I've never been sued. Instead, House Ethics will reportedly post 947 00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 5: a report online that I have no opportunity to debate 948 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:25,280 Speaker 5: or rebut. 949 00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:26,880 Speaker 3: As a former member of Congress. 950 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,800 Speaker 5: Investigators are continuing to uncover new information about this week's 951 00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,279 Speaker 5: deadly shooting at Abundant Life Christian School in Madison, Wisconsin. 952 00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 5: It turns out the fifteen year old girl who police 953 00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,640 Speaker 5: say killed a student and teacher at that school had 954 00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,279 Speaker 5: been in contact with the man in California who was 955 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 5: allegedly planning an attack on a government building. A restraining 956 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,680 Speaker 5: order is out for that twenty year old carlsbad Man, right, 957 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:52,160 Speaker 5: now requiring him to turn over his guns and ammunition 958 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:53,440 Speaker 5: within forty eight hours. 959 00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:55,680 Speaker 3: The FBI has interviewed. 960 00:50:55,200 --> 00:50:57,600 Speaker 5: The man and says he and the teenager had planned 961 00:50:57,600 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 5: to attack the government building together. Moment, investigators still don't 962 00:51:01,880 --> 00:51:04,640 Speaker 5: have a motive for that shooting at the school. Well, 963 00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 5: of course, continue a moment and this story and all 964 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 5: the stories we just told you about throughout the day. 965 00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 5: But now let's get you back over to doctor Gena 966 00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 5: and David okay tee. 967 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,320 Speaker 1: Of course, one of the big stories is that cr 968 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,600 Speaker 1: that is now making its way through Congress yet again. 969 00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:21,240 Speaker 1: But another big story is that House Ethics Committee report 970 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:25,320 Speaker 1: it's now going to be released about former Florida Governor 971 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 1: Matt Gates. It's a stunning reversal. Here's some of what 972 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 1: Matt Gates posted to x terns. Read some of it. 973 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 1: Here's a little bit more. In my single days, I 974 00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:37,160 Speaker 1: often sent funds to women I dated, even some I 975 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,879 Speaker 1: never dated, but who asked? I dated several of these 976 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,919 Speaker 1: women for years. I never had sexual contact with someone 977 00:51:44,040 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 1: under eighteen. Any claim that I have would be destroyed 978 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:49,759 Speaker 1: in court, which is why no such claim was ever 979 00:51:49,800 --> 00:51:52,799 Speaker 1: made in court. All right, for more on this and 980 00:51:52,840 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 1: of course, the CR, which we'll get to in a moment. 981 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,960 Speaker 1: Let's bring in Tennessee Congressman Tim Burchett, Congressman, great to 982 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:01,719 Speaker 1: have you. We'll get to the CR. That's what a 983 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,239 Speaker 1: lot of people are talking about. But I got to 984 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,759 Speaker 1: get to the Gates thing. So help me understand is, 985 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 1: at first the committee decided not to release the report. 986 00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,560 Speaker 1: They voted on that. Then there was this secret vote. 987 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,760 Speaker 1: What does that even mean? A secret vote in Congress? 988 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,239 Speaker 1: What the heck's going on? I'm confused. Secret votes in 989 00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:19,200 Speaker 1: Congress don't make many Americans very happy. 990 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 7: No, they don't. 991 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 17: And what reality was the Democrat ranking member had leaped 992 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 17: out a bunch of this stuff, if you remember, and 993 00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 17: was accused of it and quit going to the meetings, 994 00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 17: and in my opinion, had broke the law and was 995 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:32,480 Speaker 17: going to be brought up on should be brought up 996 00:52:32,480 --> 00:52:33,240 Speaker 17: on those charges. 997 00:52:33,239 --> 00:52:35,560 Speaker 7: But we're kind of running out of time on that. 998 00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:40,200 Speaker 17: And also the Biden Justice Department chose not to prosecute 999 00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 17: Matt after they had all this evidence, and they hated 1000 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 17: Matt Gates. They hated him more than anybody, They hated 1001 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 17: him more than Donald Trump. And that's saying something so 1002 00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:55,160 Speaker 17: it's very suspect to me. Congressional ethics is like military intelligence. 1003 00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:58,319 Speaker 17: Remember our military intelligence told us that Ukraine would fall 1004 00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 17: in two weeks, even after we gave them billions of dollars. 1005 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 17: So I don't have a lot of faith. And in 1006 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 17: congressional ethics, it's just an you know, we are we 1007 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 17: are human, and we've all fallen. And you know, look, 1008 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:15,959 Speaker 17: Matt's out of Congress. I'm gonna I'm actually I'm gonna 1009 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,000 Speaker 17: get with my staff when I get them all in 1010 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,120 Speaker 17: here this morning, we're going to petition the committee to 1011 00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:24,200 Speaker 17: release all their files. Because if they're going to do that, 1012 00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,480 Speaker 17: there's plenty of Congressmen that are that are out out 1013 00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:30,719 Speaker 17: now that are very still very influential on the on 1014 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,120 Speaker 17: the hill, and we ought to If we're going to 1015 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:35,080 Speaker 17: do for one, we better do it for all of 1016 00:53:35,080 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 17: them because this has a very political tank to it. 1017 00:53:38,239 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 4: Yes, and congressmen, what about all of the congresspeople who 1018 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,719 Speaker 4: have settled cases and there have been massive payouts at 1019 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 4: taxpayer expense. By the way, how can we're not privy 1020 00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,399 Speaker 4: to that information? And do you think that might change 1021 00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:52,839 Speaker 4: into new Trump administration? 1022 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 7: Doctor? 1023 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 17: That is a very good question, and Ultimately that's going 1024 00:53:58,200 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 17: to be left up to the members of the Committee 1025 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 17: and Congress. And you have to remember every one of 1026 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:08,280 Speaker 17: those members serves at the leisure of the former speaker, 1027 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:12,359 Speaker 17: who Matt was an I and several others were responsible 1028 00:54:13,160 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 17: for removing from the Speaker's chair. So there's a political 1029 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:21,680 Speaker 17: element to this. It's vindictive. I don't like it. The 1030 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:24,680 Speaker 17: original plan, of course, was to release it and then 1031 00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:27,760 Speaker 17: we're going to be out of town, and so now 1032 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:31,600 Speaker 17: with the budget situation, we're in town when they release it. 1033 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:33,280 Speaker 17: So there's going to be a lot of people asking 1034 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:35,120 Speaker 17: a lot of questions. 1035 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:38,919 Speaker 5: Congressman, you call it the budget situation. I tend to 1036 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,319 Speaker 5: describe it as the budget debacle. So what's happening behind 1037 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 5: the scenes. What's going to happen here over the next 1038 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 5: twenty eight twenty four to forty eight hours in terms 1039 00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 5: of trying to get this all worked out? Is going 1040 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:50,840 Speaker 5: to be a clean cr Are you guys going to 1041 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 5: stick with this massive spinning bill that was released just yesterday? 1042 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,440 Speaker 3: What's going on? Please break it all down for us. 1043 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 7: The massive spinning bill isn't going anywhere. I don't think. 1044 00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:03,280 Speaker 17: I think we're going to go back to the table 1045 00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:08,359 Speaker 17: and they're going to pass a continued resolution. But let 1046 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 17: me remind you something, if we could just go back 1047 00:55:11,560 --> 00:55:14,960 Speaker 17: to pre COVID spending levels all this. Now we're going 1048 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:17,600 Speaker 17: to pass the CR, and everybody's going to pack themselves 1049 00:55:17,600 --> 00:55:20,520 Speaker 17: on the back and say, wow, we just passed a CR, 1050 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:24,200 Speaker 17: A clean CR. Well, that clean CR is still a 1051 00:55:24,239 --> 00:55:28,040 Speaker 17: bloated disaster waiting to happen. It just kicks the can. 1052 00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:30,439 Speaker 17: You know, we're shooting ourself that last when we shot 1053 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 17: ourselves five times in the head. This time we're just 1054 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 17: going to shoot ourselves three times in the head. It's 1055 00:55:35,640 --> 00:55:39,440 Speaker 17: deficit spending. Every dollar we spend, pretty much is borrowed. 1056 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:42,560 Speaker 17: We had a trillion dollars every hundred days when I 1057 00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:44,800 Speaker 17: was mayor, And excuse me, when I was in the 1058 00:55:44,840 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 17: state legislature. I raised the speed limit in Tennessee, and 1059 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:50,959 Speaker 17: I think I asked for like eighty five miles an hour. 1060 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 17: I took seventy. That's exactly what America's doing right now. 1061 00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:58,160 Speaker 17: These guys know what they're doing. They're putting out a 1062 00:55:58,239 --> 00:56:00,960 Speaker 17: terrible bill that if they lose who they still fall 1063 00:56:01,040 --> 00:56:05,160 Speaker 17: back on a what was once considered a terrible bill, 1064 00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 17: but by comparison, it's great and all these moderate Republicans 1065 00:56:10,080 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 17: are going to be patting themselves on the back. 1066 00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:13,480 Speaker 7: Oh, look what we did for Doge. Look what we 1067 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:14,360 Speaker 7: did for Doge. 1068 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 17: And when it comes down to the tough bills like 1069 00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 17: defunding Department of Educations, sending that to the states, they're 1070 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,160 Speaker 17: going to run for cover. Like when you turn the 1071 00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:24,960 Speaker 17: lights on on an old country kitchen, the cockroach. It's 1072 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:27,319 Speaker 17: just run for the darkness. And that's what they're going 1073 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,439 Speaker 17: to look at. My wife just went and I said, 1074 00:56:31,520 --> 00:56:32,080 Speaker 17: if I can. 1075 00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:34,160 Speaker 5: Just follow up, so on the record of what do 1076 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:35,560 Speaker 5: you how do you plan to vote? Are you a 1077 00:56:35,600 --> 00:56:37,800 Speaker 5: no vote on the CR how do you plan to vote? 1078 00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:41,080 Speaker 5: And beyond that? Doesn't this set President Trump up not 1079 00:56:41,080 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 5: necessarily for failure, but offers a lot more challenge to 1080 00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,320 Speaker 5: him once he takes office. If you guys passed this 1081 00:56:46,480 --> 00:56:48,520 Speaker 5: blooded as you said, uh, Bill. 1082 00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:51,160 Speaker 17: Yeah, on the old on the on the on the 1083 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:54,719 Speaker 17: one that was out yesterday, I definitely was a no. 1084 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 7: And I was on I think CNN. 1085 00:56:57,040 --> 00:57:01,720 Speaker 17: And I and I congratulated ELI and BVEC for joining 1086 00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:05,520 Speaker 17: me because they all came out against it. But as 1087 00:57:05,560 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 17: you remember, I was against it over a week ago. 1088 00:57:08,520 --> 00:57:11,640 Speaker 17: So yeah, that bloated one's gone. Don't even worry about that. 1089 00:57:11,840 --> 00:57:14,880 Speaker 17: With the pay raise and all that stuff. That thing's history. 1090 00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 17: What we're going to be dealing with is a so 1091 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 17: called clean CR. And it is terrible in itself, and 1092 00:57:21,520 --> 00:57:23,600 Speaker 17: I'll read it and see what's in it. But if 1093 00:57:23,640 --> 00:57:26,280 Speaker 17: it's twenty five or thirty pages, it's probably something that 1094 00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:28,919 Speaker 17: most of Congress can hold its nose. But again, we're 1095 00:57:28,960 --> 00:57:31,640 Speaker 17: not passing a budget. We are not passing a budget. 1096 00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:35,000 Speaker 17: All were down is continuing bad spending policies that were 1097 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,680 Speaker 17: put in place by Pelosi and Schumer. We need to 1098 00:57:37,720 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 17: pass a budget. Stay here, shut it down, stay here 1099 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:42,440 Speaker 17: till we pass a budget. 1100 00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, let me ask you, Congressman, help me make sense 1101 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,520 Speaker 1: of this. So why not why wasn't a clean CR 1102 00:57:51,360 --> 00:57:53,480 Speaker 1: the goal all along in terms of just doing that 1103 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:55,800 Speaker 1: as plan A. And the other part of this is, 1104 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,200 Speaker 1: I'm a little confused why President elect Trump and Musk 1105 00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:04,760 Speaker 1: come out out after the CR gets dropped. Where were 1106 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:08,680 Speaker 1: the conversations beforehand with Johnson say hey, little heads up, 1107 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,040 Speaker 1: I'm going to drop this bill and you might not 1108 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: like it. And maybe there was some discussion first about that. 1109 00:58:14,160 --> 00:58:17,560 Speaker 1: I mean I know, co equal branches of governments, separation 1110 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,919 Speaker 1: of powers, but I mean still, I mean, I don't 1111 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,200 Speaker 1: understand why this has even gotten to this place. I mean, 1112 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 1: why why wouldn't Johnson just say to Trump and Musk, 1113 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,080 Speaker 1: look you might not like some of the stuff and 1114 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 1: the bill, and then they have a little discussion before 1115 00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 1: this thing drops. It doesn't make any sense. It goes 1116 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,400 Speaker 1: to kind of Speaker Johnson. And I like Speaker Johnson, 1117 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:42,960 Speaker 1: and I like his ideals and his policies, and he's 1118 00:58:43,000 --> 00:58:45,680 Speaker 1: a great guy. But this seems like a bit of 1119 00:58:45,720 --> 00:58:48,800 Speaker 1: a pr disaster that didn't need to be. 1120 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 17: Well, you're right on a lot accounts, but he was 1121 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:59,400 Speaker 17: on a actually a text chain with Levek and and 1122 00:58:59,520 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 17: Alon up till like eleven or o'clock or midnight the 1123 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 17: other night when this, before this thing really broke. 1124 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 7: I think they had been briefed on it. 1125 00:59:07,800 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 17: I just don't think they understood the complexity of it. 1126 00:59:11,200 --> 00:59:14,120 Speaker 17: Like you know, they came out and said, one of 1127 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:17,320 Speaker 17: them said that it's a forty thousand dollars raise for legislators. 1128 00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 17: I'll buy you the biggest stake at the Capitol Hill 1129 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,360 Speaker 17: Club if you can find me where it says forty 1130 00:59:22,400 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 17: thousand dollars pay raise. What it said was a cost 1131 00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 17: of living increase. They started reading off the internet and 1132 00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:33,160 Speaker 17: that just snowballs. You know, again, we're going to have 1133 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:36,320 Speaker 17: a real problem with those because when they start talking 1134 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 17: about making cuts, Congress is gonna they're going to say, yeah, 1135 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:42,160 Speaker 17: we'll do that in the House, and then over the 1136 00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 17: Senate they'll kill it, and then the sentine'll send something 1137 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 17: over equally egregious, and then we'll kill it over there. 1138 00:59:47,800 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 17: And I got a feeling those two guys are going 1139 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 17: to get very frustrated very fast. And America needs to 1140 00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:58,120 Speaker 17: be paying attention about what we're doing up here because 1141 00:59:58,240 --> 00:59:58,560 Speaker 17: they're not. 1142 00:59:59,320 --> 01:00:01,200 Speaker 7: And the only reason and they did is the is 1143 01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:03,680 Speaker 7: X is uncorked. 1144 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:07,040 Speaker 17: Right now and it's not being censored, and I think 1145 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:08,440 Speaker 17: there's a lot of false information. 1146 01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 7: And so anyway, I'm sorry. 1147 01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 4: I want to get this in so bad and we 1148 01:00:11,920 --> 01:00:13,960 Speaker 4: just have no time left. But is the speakership at 1149 01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:16,040 Speaker 4: risk over this era, because this is a lot of 1150 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:19,200 Speaker 4: leadership clearly thirty seconds, Yes. 1151 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,800 Speaker 17: Ma'am, it is, and it is every day though we 1152 01:00:21,880 --> 01:00:23,680 Speaker 17: have a three person lead, and I think we'll end 1153 01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:25,720 Speaker 17: up with like maybe a five person lead. I'm not 1154 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 17: sure what's going to happen, and there's already a lot 1155 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:30,480 Speaker 17: of grumbling, but there's always a lot of grumbling when 1156 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,800 Speaker 17: you're this close. And this is why I think it's 1157 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,800 Speaker 17: important for people to pay attention and not knee jerk, 1158 01:00:36,080 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 17: and look at the history of this situation. We didn't 1159 01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:41,640 Speaker 17: get in this situation overnight, and people think they're just 1160 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:42,320 Speaker 17: going to come up. 1161 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:43,920 Speaker 7: Here, roll up their sleeves and get it done in 1162 01:00:43,960 --> 01:00:44,800 Speaker 7: a couple of months. 1163 01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:48,280 Speaker 17: Every hundred days we had a trillion dollars and currently 1164 01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:51,439 Speaker 17: that those folks are saying Vivek and Elon are saying, 1165 01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:53,840 Speaker 17: we're going to cut two trillion dollars. Well, folks, that's 1166 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:57,920 Speaker 17: just two hundred days of spending up here. We have 1167 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 17: got to get control of this thing. You got to 1168 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 17: get a real grasp on what's going on, and currently 1169 01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 17: there isn't one on either side of the aisle. And 1170 01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,320 Speaker 17: that's why I say shut it down. Let's get let's 1171 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 17: bring everybody to the table, let's pass a real budget, 1172 01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:13,280 Speaker 17: and let's go home. 1173 01:01:14,440 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 1: Shooter of Street Shooters, Congressman Tim Burchet, Mary Christmas, thank you, sir. 1174 01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 1: We really appreciate you. 1175 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:25,240 Speaker 7: And Terrence.

How is it's going to impact 1191 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 1: the region, And we're going to get into that first though, 1192 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:18,280 Speaker 1: Keith Olberman, he's going to plan a new plan apparently 1193 01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 1: for MSNBC. It's talking he's talking about doubling down on 1194 01:02:21,560 --> 01:02:23,919 Speaker 1: what has failed.

Great to have you with us this morning. 1199 01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:54,840 Speaker 1: President elect Trump now suing the Des Moines Register and 1200 01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:59,520 Speaker 1: a top polster overclaims of election interference and fraud. Trump's 1201 01:02:59,600 --> 01:03:03,880 Speaker 1: lawsuit says he is seeking accountability for brazen election interference 1202 01:03:03,920 --> 01:03:07,440 Speaker 1: by the Des Moines Register and polster j Ann Seltzer. 1203 01:03:07,920 --> 01:03:10,479 Speaker 1: The poll in question showed Kamala Harris leading the state 1204 01:03:10,480 --> 01:03:13,280 Speaker 1: by three points, and Trump won Iowa by more than 1205 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:16,080 Speaker 1: ten points. And of course this came just days before 1206 01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 1: the election. For more, let's bring in the host of 1207 01:03:18,360 --> 01:03:22,520 Speaker 1: media exposed, Adam Weiss. Adam always good to see. I 1208 01:03:22,560 --> 01:03:24,560 Speaker 1: think it's hilarious that Trump said the other day in 1209 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:27,800 Speaker 1: the press conference like that Anne Seltzer, really good polster. 1210 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean she's a good one. Yeah. But I'm gonna sewer. 1211 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:34,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna sew her. How do you see the lawsuit 1212 01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 1: playing out? 1213 01:03:36,960 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 3: Why not? 1214 01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 18: For too many low, too many many years, the media 1215 01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:43,720 Speaker 18: legacy of ruining lives. You know, just last week, on 1216 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:46,560 Speaker 18: a separate issue, on a sort of a cultural moment, 1217 01:03:46,600 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 18: eighteen years ago, the whole echo media chambier came down 1218 01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 18: we now know as the Dupal Cross story. 1219 01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:52,959 Speaker 13: Right. 1220 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 18: They ruined the guys lives by the shady woman who 1221 01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 18: said these poor guys right me. They fired the coach, 1222 01:04:00,440 --> 01:04:04,200 Speaker 18: they disband the fraternity. These guys had to hire lawyers. 1223 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:07,080 Speaker 18: Their lives were ruined eighteen years later because of what 1224 01:04:07,120 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 18: the media did. This girl happens to be in jail 1225 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:10,800 Speaker 18: for man. So it's just, oh, I lied about the 1226 01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:14,080 Speaker 18: whole thing, like the press had a narrative there. They 1227 01:04:14,160 --> 01:04:17,000 Speaker 18: lied over and over again, and they've been doing it 1228 01:04:16,640 --> 01:04:21,400 Speaker 18: for years. Every job in America, whether it's the military, 1229 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:25,080 Speaker 18: police officer, you lie, you're fired. Why did the press 1230 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,320 Speaker 18: get a free pass over and over again? They're a 1231 01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:31,000 Speaker 18: big dumpster truck. That's the guys sleeping. They're sleeping at 1232 01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:34,439 Speaker 18: the wheel, and they cause damage over and over again 1233 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:39,040 Speaker 18: to people's lives. So why not hold them accountable. I 1234 01:04:39,080 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 18: thought that poll was a joke anyway, right, but the 1235 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 18: whole media ran with it to one last straw they 1236 01:04:45,640 --> 01:04:47,320 Speaker 18: wanted to try to affect the election. 1237 01:04:48,520 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 4: Adam Keith Obman is calling for MSNBC to fire Mika 1238 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 4: and Joe and push the network further to the left. 1239 01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:56,840 Speaker 2: Oberman slammed Meka and. 1240 01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:59,240 Speaker 4: Joe for meeting with President Trump at mar A Lago 1241 01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,360 Speaker 4: and called for s NBC to move further left, citing 1242 01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 4: more profits if they do this. Didn't the people just 1243 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 4: reject leftism pretty much wholeheartedly and say that they didn't 1244 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:14,800 Speaker 4: want any more about what makes him believe this. 1245 01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 18: I have a hardcore left friend, British friend, Terry says hardcore, 1246 01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:24,800 Speaker 18: but we're friends, you know, it's okay. And I said, 1247 01:05:24,840 --> 01:05:27,760 Speaker 18: why are all these YouTubers and left wing you know, 1248 01:05:27,880 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 18: ratings down so far as sims? He said, because they're 1249 01:05:30,160 --> 01:05:33,360 Speaker 18: spouting out the same left wing mantra over and over again. 1250 01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 3: And I want to hear it. 1251 01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:35,960 Speaker 18: I want to get back to work. I wish they'd 1252 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,080 Speaker 18: get back to normalcy. They sold us a bill of 1253 01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,280 Speaker 18: goods and Oben wants more of that. He wants more left. 1254 01:05:42,280 --> 01:05:46,160 Speaker 18: They've lost every swing state. He was already kicked out 1255 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:48,760 Speaker 18: many many years ago because he was too far left. 1256 01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:51,760 Speaker 18: And you know, Meek and Joe reached out a little bit. 1257 01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 18: They're already backtracking attacking Trump left and right. So I 1258 01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 18: think if that's his message, and then we'll have the 1259 01:05:58,920 --> 01:06:01,720 Speaker 18: conservatives will be empower for you know, three or four 1260 01:06:01,760 --> 01:06:03,720 Speaker 18: more decades if they followed Olberman's advice. 1261 01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:07,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about that. I mean, just check out 1262 01:06:07,480 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 1: Air America. Oh wait, Air America is not on anymore. 1263 01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:13,640 Speaker 1: That was that liberal radio with Al Franklin and all 1264 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:16,480 Speaker 1: these liberal hosts. That's why conservative radio speaks. 1265 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:16,720 Speaker 13: To the heartland. 1266 01:06:16,720 --> 01:06:19,760 Speaker 1: There's no liberal radio out there.

First, 1322 01:09:19,840 --> 01:09:22,640 Speaker 19: I don't know that Israel will have any direct contacts 1323 01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:26,120 Speaker 19: with these rebels who are really sunny jiatist, who are 1324 01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 19: linked to al Qaeda, came out of al Kaya and 1325 01:09:28,080 --> 01:09:30,439 Speaker 19: the Muslim brother As you said, these are not nice guys. 1326 01:09:30,640 --> 01:09:32,799 Speaker 19: So number one, I think Israel's kind of feeling around 1327 01:09:32,800 --> 01:09:35,040 Speaker 19: and trying to figure out how to handle the new 1328 01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:38,920 Speaker 19: entity to the northeast in Syria. The Jihati leader is 1329 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:41,799 Speaker 19: trying to portray himself as a moderate. 1330 01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 3: He's changed his spots. 1331 01:09:43,240 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 19: But David, when Jihati's getting power, they don't usually suddenly moderate. 1332 01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:50,000 Speaker 19: That's number one, Number two. With the buffer zone, it's 1333 01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 19: absolutely necessary. Unfortunately, I thought it was stunning in a 1334 01:09:54,560 --> 01:09:57,479 Speaker 19: good way to see the Israeli Prime Minister standing on 1335 01:09:57,680 --> 01:10:00,880 Speaker 19: Syrian soil just two days ago jam Natania, who was 1336 01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 19: standing on this Syrian side of Mount Hermone. And the 1337 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 19: problem David is Israel has internalized what happened on October seventh, 1338 01:10:09,400 --> 01:10:12,479 Speaker 19: not a problem, actually wisdom on Israel's part. They're not 1339 01:10:12,680 --> 01:10:16,960 Speaker 19: going to allow Jihatis to mass on their borders anymore. 1340 01:10:17,360 --> 01:10:20,000 Speaker 19: That's why they've smashed Hamas and has Blah over the 1341 01:10:20,040 --> 01:10:23,559 Speaker 19: past fourteen months, and that's why Israel preemptively is saying, look, 1342 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:27,360 Speaker 19: now we've got a new Jihati faction in Syria and 1343 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,559 Speaker 19: we're not going to let them set up shot shop 1344 01:10:29,640 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 19: on our border either. So for the time being, the 1345 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 19: buffer zone is absolutely necessary to prevent any sort of 1346 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,960 Speaker 19: October seventh style attack by the new Jihati government in Syria. 1347 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:42,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, such great analysis. And one are these Arab nations 1348 01:10:42,400 --> 01:10:45,200 Speaker 1: going to learn nineteen forty eight, fifty six, sixty seven, 1349 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:50,080 Speaker 1: seventy three, eighty two, Just go on and on, I mean, defeat, defeat, defeat, 1350 01:10:50,160 --> 01:10:52,599 Speaker 1: defeat these people. I mean, do you not get the message? 1351 01:10:52,600 --> 01:10:54,840 Speaker 1: Maybe they should open up the Book of Genesis for 1352 01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,160 Speaker 1: a moment, but clearly they're not going to do that. 1353 01:10:57,360 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 12: Hey. 1354 01:10:58,000 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 1: Sorry, I went off on a soapbox there. All right, 1355 01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 1: I want to get your take on President elect Trump's 1356 01:11:03,439 --> 01:11:07,600 Speaker 1: Ukrainian envoy, Keith Kellogg. He's going to travel stacks to 1357 01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:12,080 Speaker 1: Ukraine and other European capitals in early January. Trump's China 1358 01:11:12,439 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 1: and the war between Ukraine and Russia. It's expected to 1359 01:11:14,920 --> 01:11:16,880 Speaker 1: be a fact finding trip to see what the full 1360 01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:20,360 Speaker 1: situation is. How do you see this plane out exactly? 1361 01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 1: Because Trump said the other day in the press conference 1362 01:11:23,120 --> 01:11:26,760 Speaker 1: he actually thought the Middle East would be easier than 1363 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:30,360 Speaker 1: the situation in Russia between Russia and Ukraine, which was 1364 01:11:30,400 --> 01:11:32,559 Speaker 1: I thought kind of interesting to say it that way. 1365 01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:35,920 Speaker 1: But your take, I got about thirty Sorry, I got 1366 01:11:35,920 --> 01:11:37,280 Speaker 1: about thirty seconds or so. Good. 1367 01:11:37,320 --> 01:11:38,680 Speaker 13: Yeah, he may actually be right about that. 1368 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,919 Speaker 19: Israel has made a new Middle East here by smashing 1369 01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:45,599 Speaker 19: its enemies. But yeah, Russia Ukraine is still going at 1370 01:11:45,640 --> 01:11:49,040 Speaker 19: it very tough. The other day Ukraine assassinated a Russian 1371 01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:52,640 Speaker 19: general on Russian soil. So President Trump doos made very 1372 01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,280 Speaker 19: clear he wants that conflict to end. Here's the thing, David, 1373 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:59,679 Speaker 19: Vladimir Putin respects Donald Trump, So I think you'll listen 1374 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:01,439 Speaker 19: to tru up and be a lot more amenable to 1375 01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:03,560 Speaker 19: a deal, obviously than under Joe Biden, who was a 1376 01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 19: non entity. But I would look for Trump to make 1377 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:09,240 Speaker 19: a real move obviously to forge a piece there. I 1378 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:11,200 Speaker 19: think Keith Kellogg is a good choice to do it. 1379 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:14,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Eric Shacklebeck, great to have you stackle Beck tonight 1380 01:12:15,040 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 1: TBN every night. 1381 01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 19: What time Eric, seven to thirty pm Eastern and ten 1382 01:12:19,200 --> 01:12:20,000 Speaker 19: thirty pm Eastern? 1383 01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:22,640 Speaker 1: Very nice, Great to see you. 1384 01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 13: Appreciate it you too, Thank you all. 1385 01:12:25,280 --> 01:12:27,640 Speaker 1: Right, Time for tea, time for t Wait were we 1386 01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:29,439 Speaker 1: going to England?

AMAC is fighting for the 1390 01:12:41,000 --> 01:12:44,760 Speaker 9: values that you hold dear and joined today together we 1391 01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 9: can wright the course of America. 1392 01:12:47,320 --> 01:12:50,760 Speaker 5: Tell a hoe, it's Tim Crumpet's time. Actually, it's time 1393 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:52,799 Speaker 5: for the opening bell with the New Year Stock Exchange. 1394 01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:54,800 Speaker 5: You can hear the applause there in the background. That 1395 01:12:54,920 --> 01:12:57,080 Speaker 5: means the bell is going to ring here in short order, 1396 01:12:57,320 --> 01:12:59,360 Speaker 5: and then we'll see exactly how the markets are looking. 1397 01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:02,120 Speaker 5: I can tell you market trading looking good so far. 1398 01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:05,080 Speaker 5: All of the major indices are in the green. Hopefully 1399 01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:07,680 Speaker 5: it will stay that way once the bell rings in 1400 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:08,840 Speaker 5: the market's officially open. 1401 01:13:09,040 --> 01:13:10,880 Speaker 3: Well, there you have it, ladies and gentlemen, the markets 1402 01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:11,840 Speaker 3: are now officially open. 1403 01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:14,360 Speaker 5: You hear the bell ringing, and just like that, the 1404 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:16,640 Speaker 5: Dow remaining in the green, as is the S and 1405 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:19,680 Speaker 5: P five hundred and the Nasdaq. The blemishes on our 1406 01:13:19,720 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 5: screen are gold and silver. Those two precious metals down, 1407 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 5: both of them over a full percent, Gold down over 1408 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:27,880 Speaker 5: one and a half percent, silver down more than three 1409 01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:31,599 Speaker 5: percentage points. That's pretty significant. Crude oil, on the other hand, 1410 01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 5: is in the positive right now. Will of course continue 1411 01:13:34,120 --> 01:13:36,320 Speaker 5: to monitor the markets for you throughout the day. If 1412 01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:41,000 Speaker 5: you're investing, you'll probably be monitoring them for yourself. Well, folks, 1413 01:13:41,280 --> 01:13:44,280 Speaker 5: needless to say, this is crunch time. A new administration 1414 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:46,759 Speaker 5: is going to be sworn in in a matter of days. 1415 01:13:47,120 --> 01:13:49,680 Speaker 5: But as great as that is, that also means that 1416 01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:52,680 Speaker 5: our enemies have days left to stir up trouble. That 1417 01:13:52,800 --> 01:13:55,360 Speaker 5: could mean anything from a cyber attack to an invasion 1418 01:13:55,479 --> 01:13:59,480 Speaker 5: or god forbid, a nuclear strike. Until the longtime bureaucrats 1419 01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:02,000 Speaker 5: are out of Washington. You may not want to take 1420 01:14:02,040 --> 01:14:04,639 Speaker 5: any chances. And that's why so many people are already 1421 01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:08,240 Speaker 5: investing in emergency food from the My Patriots Supply folks. 1422 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,160 Speaker 5: Right now, they're offering one hundred dollars off of their 1423 01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:14,719 Speaker 5: three month emergency food kit.

After agreeing to yet another continuing resolution, 1435 01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:51,240 Speaker 5: what can. 1436 01:14:51,200 --> 01:14:54,320 Speaker 3: We expect from the new conders? We'll analyze that in 1437 01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 3: so much more. 1438 01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:59,000 Speaker 5: First, though, the House Ethics Committee has voted to release 1439 01:14:59,040 --> 01:15:00,360 Speaker 5: its report on mac Gates. 1440 01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:02,519 Speaker 3: So is this just a shot to ensure that you 1441 01:15:02,640 --> 01:15:05,839 Speaker 3: can't come back? Or what's really behind this? We'll discuss 1442 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:07,360 Speaker 3: next you on American Sunrise. 1443 01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:28,760 Speaker 4: All right, welcome back to American Sunrise. I'm bac to Gee. 1444 01:15:28,760 --> 01:15:31,280 Speaker 4: Thanks for joining us this morning. We invite you to 1445 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:34,599 Speaker 4: hop on into our conversation over on Getter and Rumble 1446 01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:39,439 Speaker 4: election twenty twenty four. Still saucy and in a shocking reversal, 1447 01:15:39,720 --> 01:15:42,439 Speaker 4: the House Ethics Committee has reportedly voted to release the 1448 01:15:42,560 --> 01:15:46,519 Speaker 4: report against Matt Gates. Now, at first the Ethics Committee 1449 01:15:46,600 --> 01:15:50,280 Speaker 4: voted against releasing the report, but now after this secret vote, 1450 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:55,360 Speaker 4: it will be released, and it will be released exactly 1451 01:15:55,520 --> 01:15:58,400 Speaker 4: after the final votes today. Now, this report was compiled 1452 01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:02,639 Speaker 4: over several years, included allegations of sexual misconduct and other things. 1453 01:16:03,080 --> 01:16:06,839 Speaker 4: Gates resigned from Congress after being nominated for Attorney General, 1454 01:16:06,960 --> 01:16:10,280 Speaker 4: and shortly after he withdrew his name from that nomination. 1455 01:16:10,600 --> 01:16:15,400 Speaker 4: For more, let's bring in Daily Single investigative columnist Tony Kennett. Tony, 1456 01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:18,280 Speaker 4: what do you make of this? He's not even in 1457 01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:20,679 Speaker 4: Congress anymore? But do you think it moves the needle 1458 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:24,240 Speaker 4: when the report comes out? And really, what is the point? 1459 01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:28,000 Speaker 4: I mean, he's done with Congress, he's not taking the nomination. 1460 01:16:28,200 --> 01:16:28,960 Speaker 2: Why are they doing this? 1461 01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:31,800 Speaker 20: I mean, it just seems like political theater. I mean, 1462 01:16:31,920 --> 01:16:34,080 Speaker 20: that's one hundred percent what it is. And besides the 1463 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:37,679 Speaker 20: fact that I'm all for congressional ethics reports being released, 1464 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:41,200 Speaker 20: release it when you say you're going to release it, not, Well, 1465 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:42,680 Speaker 20: we're going to keep it on the string and on 1466 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 20: the hook. So maybe we'll get it out there. Maybe 1467 01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:45,759 Speaker 20: we won't. 1468 01:16:45,800 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 13: Who knows. 1469 01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:48,560 Speaker 20: Maybe we'll throw it out with a little bit of 1470 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:50,880 Speaker 20: a Christmas card. It's just silly. At this point, he's 1471 01:16:50,920 --> 01:16:53,719 Speaker 20: not in Congress. Your time to release the ethics report 1472 01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,160 Speaker 20: was months ago, months ago. 1473 01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:58,840 Speaker 13: Now it's just for show. 1474 01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:00,479 Speaker 10: Cool? 1475 01:17:00,640 --> 01:17:03,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, Tony, let's move on to this continuing resolution. 1476 01:17:04,640 --> 01:17:07,640 Speaker 1: Really it's not a continuing resolution, or at least that 1477 01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:10,280 Speaker 1: one's been scrapped. It was more turned into an omnibus 1478 01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:13,640 Speaker 1: A cromnibus, I think is what people were calling it 1479 01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:15,160 Speaker 1: on X and I kind of think that's a good 1480 01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 1: description for it. So now they're going to Plan B. 1481 01:17:18,400 --> 01:17:21,559 Speaker 1: Why wasn't Plan B Plan A? I mean, this whole 1482 01:17:21,600 --> 01:17:24,360 Speaker 1: thing is ridiculous. They should have just done a clean CR. 1483 01:17:24,960 --> 01:17:28,000 Speaker 1: I still don't understand, and I mentioned this to Congressman 1484 01:17:28,040 --> 01:17:31,719 Speaker 1: Tim Burchett earlier in the hour. Why in the world 1485 01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:35,639 Speaker 1: didn't Speaker of Mike Johnson get with Trump and Elon 1486 01:17:35,800 --> 01:17:40,080 Speaker 1: Musk and others before this thing was dropped and took off? 1487 01:17:40,160 --> 01:17:43,360 Speaker 1: I mean he, I mean Johnson must have known. Of course, 1488 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 1: he knew that all of this crap was inside of it. 1489 01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:49,800 Speaker 1: It was fifteen eighty seven, five hundred and eighty seven 1490 01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:53,360 Speaker 1: pages of a lot of gobblygook, whereas the CR portion 1491 01:17:53,520 --> 01:17:56,680 Speaker 1: was only nine pages. So I guess my point is 1492 01:17:56,840 --> 01:17:59,400 Speaker 1: is that it just seems like this didn't have to happen. 1493 01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:02,840 Speaker 1: They could have figured this out before and just past 1494 01:18:02,880 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 1: a clean CR. I just don't understand it. It makes 1495 01:18:06,000 --> 01:18:06,560 Speaker 1: no sense to me. 1496 01:18:06,920 --> 01:18:08,560 Speaker 20: I'm gonna drop a little bit of knowledge here for 1497 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,599 Speaker 20: those who are watching about how Congress and the entire 1498 01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:13,479 Speaker 20: adult word really works. Everyone is faking it until they 1499 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,719 Speaker 20: make it. Everyone is lazy. Everyone out there is always 1500 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:19,800 Speaker 20: taking the shortcut. Congress is the pinnacle of this. And 1501 01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:24,040 Speaker 20: so the way that continuing resolutions and budgets have been 1502 01:18:24,120 --> 01:18:26,760 Speaker 20: passed since the late nineties is that everyone comes up 1503 01:18:26,800 --> 01:18:28,519 Speaker 20: with something that they want and then they send that 1504 01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:30,960 Speaker 20: to the speaker and it just gets added to the bill, glued, 1505 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,800 Speaker 20: pasted in with Elmer's School glue, and then it comes 1506 01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:36,519 Speaker 20: out and it's this massive monstrosity. And so did anyone 1507 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 20: read this? No whoever's office. I guarantee you if an 1508 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:43,719 Speaker 20: aid slipped in like some goofball quote from a movie, 1509 01:18:44,040 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 20: it would make it into the bill and become law 1510 01:18:45,920 --> 01:18:48,479 Speaker 20: because no one reads it. Everyone sends in whatever they want, 1511 01:18:48,600 --> 01:18:51,760 Speaker 20: like a Christmas list, and that's considered work. No one 1512 01:18:51,800 --> 01:18:53,920 Speaker 20: actually irons out what needs to be in these bills, 1513 01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:55,360 Speaker 20: what doesn't need to be in these bills. 1514 01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,559 Speaker 13: No one actually sets up a succinct bill. 1515 01:18:58,680 --> 01:19:00,960 Speaker 20: When I set up a show, a script or I 1516 01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:03,000 Speaker 20: write at least an outline, and I narrow it down 1517 01:19:03,040 --> 01:19:04,519 Speaker 20: and I throw out what doesn't work. 1518 01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:06,600 Speaker 13: People in Congress don't do that. They don't have to. 1519 01:19:06,920 --> 01:19:08,280 Speaker 13: Congress Action actually had. 1520 01:19:08,200 --> 01:19:11,920 Speaker 20: To work for a living for thirty forty fifty years 1521 01:19:12,080 --> 01:19:13,080 Speaker 20: in crafting legislation. 1522 01:19:13,160 --> 01:19:14,680 Speaker 13: They just have some intern google it. 1523 01:19:14,840 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 20: So this is exactly what you're finding out, is that 1524 01:19:17,680 --> 01:19:20,320 Speaker 20: the American public is realizing they elected a bunch of 1525 01:19:20,439 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 20: grown children to serve in the nation's highest offices. 1526 01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:25,760 Speaker 1: Well, and a quick follow up on that, I hate 1527 01:19:25,800 --> 01:19:28,240 Speaker 1: when things are not your Maine to the bill. I mean, look, 1528 01:19:28,600 --> 01:19:30,679 Speaker 1: they want to put one hundred billion dollars of disaster 1529 01:19:30,880 --> 01:19:32,519 Speaker 1: aid into a continuing resolution. 1530 01:19:32,600 --> 01:19:34,400 Speaker 13: They want to throw new football stadium. 1531 01:19:35,240 --> 01:19:38,200 Speaker 1: Listen, here's the thing. Of course we want disaster aid 1532 01:19:38,320 --> 01:19:40,200 Speaker 1: for folks that are that are hurting. Of course we 1533 01:19:40,280 --> 01:19:42,320 Speaker 1: want money for the farmers. Don't put it in a 1534 01:19:42,360 --> 01:19:46,559 Speaker 1: continuing resolution. Do it as a standalone bill. And by 1535 01:19:46,600 --> 01:19:48,120 Speaker 1: the way, that's going to get passed in a couple 1536 01:19:48,120 --> 01:19:49,639 Speaker 1: of months. I'm sorry, I'm being smart. 1537 01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:50,599 Speaker 13: That's the kill. 1538 01:19:50,720 --> 01:19:53,360 Speaker 20: No, that's the kill all puppies. That's the kill all puppies. Maneuver, 1539 01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:55,240 Speaker 20: don't don't you know? So what you do is you 1540 01:19:55,280 --> 01:19:57,280 Speaker 20: get a bill and you suggest that first you're going 1541 01:19:57,320 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 20: to save all of the little kittens. Don't you care 1542 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:01,160 Speaker 20: about all the losses the kittens out there? And then 1543 01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:02,960 Speaker 20: there's this one small part of the bill that says 1544 01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:04,720 Speaker 20: we're going to kill all puppies. And so if you 1545 01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:07,200 Speaker 20: vote against the kill all puppies part, they say, you're 1546 01:20:07,320 --> 01:20:10,760 Speaker 20: really for the abandonment and hate of all kittens, aren't you, 1547 01:20:10,920 --> 01:20:13,760 Speaker 20: stinky Republicans. It's a tale as old as time. Slap 1548 01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:15,360 Speaker 20: it in Beauty and Beast and call it in the day. 1549 01:20:18,040 --> 01:20:19,280 Speaker 3: I love it, Tony, I love it. 1550 01:20:20,280 --> 01:20:22,000 Speaker 5: I want to switch gears and talk a bit about 1551 01:20:22,080 --> 01:20:25,839 Speaker 5: Liz Cheney. She was irrelevant until this week when basically 1552 01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:29,360 Speaker 5: she was referred to the FBI for investigation over witness 1553 01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:31,160 Speaker 5: tampering and that kind of thing as part of the 1554 01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:35,360 Speaker 5: J six Committee's investigation into what happened on January sixth. 1555 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:37,080 Speaker 3: How is this ultimately going to play out? 1556 01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:39,599 Speaker 20: In your opinion, that's probably going to end up being 1557 01:20:39,600 --> 01:20:42,040 Speaker 20: a lot like the Hillary Clinton situation, in which there's 1558 01:20:42,640 --> 01:20:45,120 Speaker 20: kind of an argument that the country doesn't want her, 1559 01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:47,080 Speaker 20: but the country is also not willing to go through 1560 01:20:47,120 --> 01:20:48,639 Speaker 20: the prosecution of this individual. 1561 01:20:49,040 --> 01:20:50,360 Speaker 13: There is a sad state of. 1562 01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:53,320 Speaker 20: Affairs that the laziness does in fact seep into the 1563 01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:58,560 Speaker 20: willingness to launch an articulate and very precise prosecution of 1564 01:20:58,600 --> 01:21:02,360 Speaker 20: an individual and investigation of an individual based on perceived crimes. 1565 01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:05,439 Speaker 20: Of course, in the Continuing Resolution that thank God, looks 1566 01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:06,200 Speaker 20: like it's dead. 1567 01:21:06,000 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 13: On arrival, there was a measure that would have allowed. 1568 01:21:08,760 --> 01:21:12,760 Speaker 20: Congress to block subpoenas from the Department of Justice, which 1569 01:21:12,840 --> 01:21:17,639 Speaker 20: is wild. Realistically, what you're seeing is a very dead 1570 01:21:17,800 --> 01:21:20,439 Speaker 20: established but that's already on its way out. The question 1571 01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:22,600 Speaker 20: is whether or not you want the scandal and the 1572 01:21:22,640 --> 01:21:26,479 Speaker 20: pear clutching of they're going after members of congre or 1573 01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:28,960 Speaker 20: whatever nonsense is going to be thrown around on CNN 1574 01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:30,840 Speaker 20: like a tetherball at a volleyball rally. 1575 01:21:32,400 --> 01:21:35,320 Speaker 4: You know, I look at our chat every day and 1576 01:21:35,720 --> 01:21:38,559 Speaker 4: look at what our audience has to say, and they 1577 01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:41,320 Speaker 4: don't like this speaker. They just don't like him. And 1578 01:21:41,439 --> 01:21:43,840 Speaker 4: even when we say nice things about him, they don't 1579 01:21:43,960 --> 01:21:47,280 Speaker 4: like him. It is not in the appetite of America 1580 01:21:47,360 --> 01:21:48,559 Speaker 4: right now. Whatever he's selling. 1581 01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:50,520 Speaker 2: But this whole. 1582 01:21:52,080 --> 01:21:54,720 Speaker 4: Debacle, as Terrence has been seeing throughout the show, of 1583 01:21:55,640 --> 01:21:59,519 Speaker 4: this Continuing Resolution that has become Omnibus and his Christmas 1584 01:21:59,560 --> 01:22:02,680 Speaker 4: treat could be perhaps the biggest Christmas tree of the 1585 01:22:02,720 --> 01:22:06,680 Speaker 4: whole season. It really is turning people off and a 1586 01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:09,240 Speaker 4: lot of people are saying this is going to end him. 1587 01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:11,080 Speaker 4: Do you think this ends that Speaker? 1588 01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 20: I do, And although I very much disagree with a 1589 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:16,599 Speaker 20: lot of most of the decisions that he's made, especially 1590 01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:18,760 Speaker 20: in the last couple of months, when I say that 1591 01:22:18,840 --> 01:22:21,200 Speaker 20: it's not entirely his fault, here's what I mean. Before 1592 01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:23,200 Speaker 20: you get out your pitchforks and your torches. Look got 1593 01:22:23,360 --> 01:22:26,960 Speaker 20: the job description does not match the title. The title 1594 01:22:27,000 --> 01:22:29,240 Speaker 20: Speaker of the House is not what the Speaker of 1595 01:22:29,280 --> 01:22:31,320 Speaker 20: the House used to be. The Speaker of the House 1596 01:22:31,360 --> 01:22:33,200 Speaker 20: today is someone who has to go in the back 1597 01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:36,000 Speaker 20: room and act corrupt. That is the current role of 1598 01:22:36,080 --> 01:22:38,479 Speaker 20: the Speaker of the House. Kevin McCarthy articulated as clearly 1599 01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:42,000 Speaker 20: he wasn't expected to get up and articulate Republican and 1600 01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:45,800 Speaker 20: conservative ideals. He's supposed to go get some liberal from 1601 01:22:45,880 --> 01:22:49,120 Speaker 20: Oregon and some Republican from South Carolina and get them 1602 01:22:49,160 --> 01:22:51,160 Speaker 20: to agree by compromising with each other. 1603 01:22:51,400 --> 01:22:54,040 Speaker 13: Is that what the American people want? No? But again, 1604 01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:55,600 Speaker 13: when Congress has been lazy. 1605 01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:58,400 Speaker 20: For decades, someone has to scoop all of the garbage 1606 01:22:58,479 --> 01:22:59,960 Speaker 20: up into one bucket and hand it to the Mamrea 1607 01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:02,719 Speaker 20: and people that's been the Speaker of the House. Johnson 1608 01:23:02,760 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 20: didn't know that before taking the role. Now has he 1609 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:07,320 Speaker 20: done a good job with it? No, But that's also 1610 01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:10,639 Speaker 20: I mean, if your job is to scrape crud off 1611 01:23:10,680 --> 01:23:13,240 Speaker 20: a sidewalk and people walk out there and ask, why 1612 01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:16,920 Speaker 20: isn't the sidewalk, you know, spotless, those are two series 1613 01:23:16,960 --> 01:23:19,000 Speaker 20: of expectations that are just a little bit different. 1614 01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:19,439 Speaker 3: Oka. 1615 01:23:19,479 --> 01:23:21,439 Speaker 20: And so while I agree that he shouldn't be the 1616 01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:24,160 Speaker 20: speaker anymore, it's also the role of the speaker that's awful. 1617 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:25,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I just want to push back to just a 1618 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:28,160 Speaker 4: little bit. I mean, this was it seemed very avoidable. 1619 01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:30,479 Speaker 4: We had this conversation on the show a little bit earlier. 1620 01:23:30,640 --> 01:23:31,640 Speaker 2: Seemed very avoidable. 1621 01:23:31,800 --> 01:23:34,760 Speaker 4: You know, he could have just simply said to President Trump, hey, 1622 01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:37,200 Speaker 4: this is what this is going to look like. And 1623 01:23:37,320 --> 01:23:40,120 Speaker 4: then President Trump could have come out early and said, hey, 1624 01:23:40,960 --> 01:23:43,120 Speaker 4: this isn't good. We're not going to stand for this, 1625 01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:45,639 Speaker 4: and it could this could have all been avoided. 1626 01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 2: Instead. 1627 01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:48,160 Speaker 4: This is a bit of a pr nightmare really for 1628 01:23:48,720 --> 01:23:52,040 Speaker 4: Republicans and even the incoming Trump administration to some degree. 1629 01:23:52,720 --> 01:23:54,640 Speaker 20: And I don't disagree with that. That's part of the 1630 01:23:54,880 --> 01:23:56,800 Speaker 20: I don't like the decisions that he's made. I'm the 1631 01:23:56,880 --> 01:23:58,760 Speaker 20: kind of PR guy that whether it's the drones and 1632 01:23:58,840 --> 01:24:02,080 Speaker 20: saying hey, look there are and we're practicing a training exercise, 1633 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:05,360 Speaker 20: or they're not ours and we're investigating easy stuff to say, PR, 1634 01:24:05,479 --> 01:24:08,519 Speaker 20: situations like these are extremely avoidable. Yes, he could have 1635 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:10,559 Speaker 20: called the Trump transition team. Yes, there could have been 1636 01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:12,679 Speaker 20: a ton of things that he could have done. That's 1637 01:24:12,720 --> 01:24:16,160 Speaker 20: not an excuse for what I said about the speaker 1638 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:17,120 Speaker 20: role being garbage. 1639 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:19,080 Speaker 13: They go hand in hand. 1640 01:24:19,320 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 20: He was never really cut out for the job. I 1641 01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:23,320 Speaker 20: don't know why we don't just pass nine page, you know, 1642 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:26,400 Speaker 20: three page bills. It's quite simple to do. It's not 1643 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:29,240 Speaker 20: like the numbers or fifteen pages long, although they feel 1644 01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:32,839 Speaker 20: like that to the American taxpayer. So it really was avoidable. 1645 01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:35,880 Speaker 20: But unfortunately this is what we're dealt Tony. And here's 1646 01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:36,360 Speaker 20: the problem. 1647 01:24:36,640 --> 01:24:38,280 Speaker 1: By the way, I agree with you. I think it's 1648 01:24:38,360 --> 01:24:41,920 Speaker 1: actually the role of the speaker that's really the issue. 1649 01:24:42,000 --> 01:24:44,840 Speaker 1: So if you put like I tell you what, just 1650 01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:47,840 Speaker 1: name the most maga person out there that you can 1651 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:49,560 Speaker 1: think of and put him in the speaker role, I 1652 01:24:49,680 --> 01:24:53,000 Speaker 1: guarantee you things will be just a little bit different 1653 01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:56,639 Speaker 1: for that person, because it's not the person, it's the role. 1654 01:24:57,760 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 1: And that's the problem because the truth of the matter 1655 01:24:59,800 --> 01:25:02,679 Speaker 1: is if you put Speaker Mike Johnson as attorney general, 1656 01:25:02,920 --> 01:25:05,080 Speaker 1: and by the way, with all of his constitutional experience, 1657 01:25:05,120 --> 01:25:07,360 Speaker 1: he could easily be attorney general. I guarantee you this 1658 01:25:07,479 --> 01:25:09,519 Speaker 1: guy would be a great attorney general and would have 1659 01:25:09,520 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 1: Trump's back left and right, and all of a sudden, 1660 01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 1: Mike Johnson is fantastic. So it's not about Mike Johnson. 1661 01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 1: I'm telling you, it's square peg, round hole. I think 1662 01:25:16,640 --> 01:25:19,840 Speaker 1: that's the issue here. Having said that, I have been 1663 01:25:19,880 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 1: a fan of Mike Johnson enough for not not for 1664 01:25:23,000 --> 01:25:25,080 Speaker 1: some of the stuff he's done specifically, but more just 1665 01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:28,960 Speaker 1: as a person, and he's he's got the right agenda, 1666 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:32,600 Speaker 1: so to speak. But here I will say, and this 1667 01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:35,479 Speaker 1: is the demarcation point for me, that this is an issue. 1668 01:25:35,479 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 1: I'm not quite sure he should be Speaker anymore. And 1669 01:25:38,160 --> 01:25:40,640 Speaker 1: the reason is is because he blew it that this 1670 01:25:40,720 --> 01:25:44,720 Speaker 1: should never and should never have come to this at all. 1671 01:25:44,840 --> 01:25:48,519 Speaker 1: This was a tactical, major tactical error. And if you're 1672 01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:50,760 Speaker 1: gonna have a tactical error here, where are your next 1673 01:25:50,840 --> 01:25:55,639 Speaker 1: tactical errors? And That's my biggest concern here regarding Mike Johnson. 1674 01:25:56,520 --> 01:25:57,519 Speaker 13: I think you're you're you're. 1675 01:25:57,760 --> 01:25:59,559 Speaker 20: How did my old sergeant put it, You're playing chess 1676 01:25:59,600 --> 01:26:02,679 Speaker 20: on a part cheesyboard. So the issue in this particular 1677 01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:04,639 Speaker 20: situation is that the rules of the game have changed. 1678 01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:06,880 Speaker 20: The speaker position is not the speaker. There are all 1679 01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:09,560 Speaker 20: these hidden committees and backroom deals. We've already had the 1680 01:26:09,640 --> 01:26:10,799 Speaker 20: Senate nomination hearings. 1681 01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:11,560 Speaker 13: Didn't you catch it. 1682 01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:14,000 Speaker 20: It was all of the senators speculating to media whether 1683 01:26:14,080 --> 01:26:16,040 Speaker 20: or not they were going to confirm individuals before we 1684 01:26:16,080 --> 01:26:17,639 Speaker 20: even had the nomination hearings. 1685 01:26:18,040 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 13: The entire US government does not function like the government 1686 01:26:21,160 --> 01:26:22,080 Speaker 13: was set up to function. 1687 01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,519 Speaker 20: So we're gonna sit here and talk about tactical errors 1688 01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:26,880 Speaker 20: and maneuvers and all this stuff. The rules are changing 1689 01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:30,639 Speaker 20: every fifteen minutes. Most of Congress is lazy anyway, flying 1690 01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:32,599 Speaker 20: in and out of things. They're arguing with each other 1691 01:26:32,720 --> 01:26:35,679 Speaker 20: on Twitter about whether or not they deserve or raise. 1692 01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:37,639 Speaker 13: It's become a complete clown show. 1693 01:26:37,920 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 20: And until you actually have a new Congress which starts 1694 01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 20: passing and putting forward legislation that short and doesn't do 1695 01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:46,920 Speaker 20: backroom deals, but actually takes the heat in public and 1696 01:26:47,000 --> 01:26:47,640 Speaker 20: flips off the. 1697 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:49,680 Speaker 13: Media when they get angry about it. You're not going 1698 01:26:49,720 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 13: to see any change. 1699 01:26:50,760 --> 01:26:52,880 Speaker 5: Well, what is that's going to happen is they're going 1700 01:26:52,960 --> 01:26:54,960 Speaker 5: to be a new Congress. It sounds like it's going 1701 01:26:55,040 --> 01:26:57,160 Speaker 5: to be much of the same even once we get 1702 01:26:57,200 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 5: this new class. 1703 01:26:57,960 --> 01:27:01,639 Speaker 20: Tony, this is why primaries matter. This is why primaries matter. 1704 01:27:01,840 --> 01:27:04,080 Speaker 20: I say this every single couple of years. And in 1705 01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:07,160 Speaker 20: Indiana we just selected someone to the six that what's 1706 01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:12,519 Speaker 20: this goober's name, some billionaire from the Indiana sixth. He's awful, Shreeve, Jefferson, Shreeve. 1707 01:27:12,760 --> 01:27:15,200 Speaker 20: He has no principles at all. He's Mike Congressman. No 1708 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:16,720 Speaker 20: one came out and voted in the primary, so we 1709 01:27:16,800 --> 01:27:19,160 Speaker 20: got garbage, and it's the same stuff all the time. 1710 01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:23,000 Speaker 1: And one last point, real quickly, his big tactical mistake, 1711 01:27:23,080 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 1: and there's been many, one of them, was putting one 1712 01:27:25,280 --> 01:27:28,320 Speaker 1: hundred billion dollars in disaster aid relief and attaching that 1713 01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:31,960 Speaker 1: and the thirty billion inform made because when he did that, 1714 01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:34,040 Speaker 1: the Democrats were like, Okay, you want that, then you 1715 01:27:34,120 --> 01:27:36,160 Speaker 1: need to give us X, Y and Z, and all 1716 01:27:36,240 --> 01:27:38,439 Speaker 1: this type of stuff came into the bill. So if 1717 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 1: he had just eliminated that to begin with, that would 1718 01:27:40,880 --> 01:27:42,800 Speaker 1: have been that would have been the way to go now. 1719 01:27:42,840 --> 01:27:44,400 Speaker 4: But I don't know if I buy that he's a 1720 01:27:44,520 --> 01:27:46,320 Speaker 4: victim of the system. I think you put a Donald 1721 01:27:46,360 --> 01:27:48,320 Speaker 4: Trump in that role as speaker and everything would have 1722 01:27:48,400 --> 01:27:48,960 Speaker 4: been different. 1723 01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:49,680 Speaker 2: But that's just me. 1724 01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:52,800 Speaker 4: I think leadership is really the question. Somebody can change 1725 01:27:52,880 --> 01:27:53,439 Speaker 4: that role too. 1726 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:56,760 Speaker 13: But Tony, can you have to choose. You're gonna have 1727 01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:58,680 Speaker 13: both in that situation. Victim and he didn't do a 1728 01:27:58,720 --> 01:27:59,040 Speaker 13: good job. 1729 01:27:59,280 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 1: Tony, we got to go. 1730 01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:02,960 Speaker 4: Sorry, We'll have you back, Tony, thanks for being with us. 1731 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:06,160 Speaker 4: Coming up, California Governor Gavin Newsom has yet another radical 1732 01:28:06,200 --> 01:28:08,760 Speaker 4: plan to hurt California.

They're just 1752 01:29:18,000 --> 01:29:19,360 Speaker 21: trying to fight. I mean, they're gonna have to put 1753 01:29:19,400 --> 01:29:23,320 Speaker 21: a cap on clean not just dirty in order to 1754 01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:26,720 Speaker 21: roll back these things. And it's all changing, and they 1755 01:29:26,880 --> 01:29:30,479 Speaker 21: either should get on board or step aside. And I 1756 01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:32,760 Speaker 21: just I'm so done with these folks that are just 1757 01:29:32,960 --> 01:29:36,400 Speaker 21: again wholly owned subsidiaries a big oil that have pluted 1758 01:29:36,439 --> 01:29:40,720 Speaker 21: this planet and have created the conditions of extremes. I'm 1759 01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:43,240 Speaker 21: done with it. I'm sick and tired of being dependent 1760 01:29:43,640 --> 01:29:47,120 Speaker 21: on decisions made OPEC and I mean I'm sick of it. 1761 01:29:47,200 --> 01:29:48,839 Speaker 1: We're all sick of paying these high prices. 1762 01:29:48,880 --> 01:29:51,080 Speaker 21: We're sick and tired of this, the politics of this, 1763 01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:53,400 Speaker 21: and you know we should be drill baby, I'm sick 1764 01:29:53,439 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 21: of it.

David, I shake, yeah, I see 1769 01:30:04,600 --> 01:30:05,280 Speaker 5: you shaking your head. 1770 01:30:05,320 --> 01:30:06,040 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go to you. 1771 01:30:06,680 --> 01:30:09,920 Speaker 5: Apart from the policy concerns we might have, it's clear 1772 01:30:09,960 --> 01:30:12,120 Speaker 5: to me that man's running for president, that right there, 1773 01:30:12,160 --> 01:30:18,000 Speaker 5: with the baseball cap and everything else, that man. Yeah, yeah, 1774 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:20,719 Speaker 5: that's clear to me. That's the first thing I thought, David. 1775 01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:22,240 Speaker 5: But I'll let you take it over. 1776 01:30:22,360 --> 01:30:25,599 Speaker 1: Please, No brainer on that for sure. Look a couple 1777 01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:27,200 Speaker 1: of things. First of all, and this is a topic 1778 01:30:27,320 --> 01:30:31,000 Speaker 1: for a different day. Why in the world are governors 1779 01:30:31,320 --> 01:30:35,160 Speaker 1: and the EPA and presidents and all of this even 1780 01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:37,760 Speaker 1: controlling any of this? I mean, that's not what our 1781 01:30:37,800 --> 01:30:41,160 Speaker 1: founders intended. You know that you know what car you drive, 1782 01:30:41,320 --> 01:30:43,759 Speaker 1: and you know gas powered in this and I understand 1783 01:30:43,760 --> 01:30:46,320 Speaker 1: they couldn't, you know, the founders wouldn't have known anything 1784 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:48,920 Speaker 1: about gas powered cars necessarily, but that's not the point. 1785 01:30:49,479 --> 01:30:51,400 Speaker 1: The government's gotten way too big and shouldn't even be 1786 01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:54,439 Speaker 1: handling any of this now. Having said that, the EPA, 1787 01:30:54,600 --> 01:30:57,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the problem here is that this is just 1788 01:30:57,920 --> 01:31:00,400 Speaker 1: a setup, right, it's a setup to get get rid 1789 01:31:00,439 --> 01:31:02,840 Speaker 1: of gas powered cars by the left. What they want 1790 01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:04,840 Speaker 1: to do is limit the emissions. And if they can 1791 01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:07,280 Speaker 1: limit the emissions, what they're gonna do is they're gonna 1792 01:31:07,760 --> 01:31:11,160 Speaker 1: they're going to penalize or they are penalizing car companies 1793 01:31:11,680 --> 01:31:14,000 Speaker 1: if you go over that emission limit. Well, at that 1794 01:31:14,160 --> 01:31:15,680 Speaker 1: point cars are going to go. Well, I don't want 1795 01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:17,599 Speaker 1: to pay the penalty on every single car that goes 1796 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:20,759 Speaker 1: over the emission limit. So we'll go with electric vehicles. 1797 01:31:20,960 --> 01:31:24,080 Speaker 1: And that's the game. That's how it's played, and we 1798 01:31:24,200 --> 01:31:27,040 Speaker 1: got to get smart and we need in essence, we 1799 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:28,840 Speaker 1: got to play the game the way it's played now, 1800 01:31:28,880 --> 01:31:31,639 Speaker 1: which is we need a new EPA director. Oh, good news, 1801 01:31:31,720 --> 01:31:34,320 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five is coming shortly, doctor g. 1802 01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:38,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, somebody needs to tell Gav that, you know, Elon's 1803 01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:42,120 Speaker 4: the one who profits from all of these electronic cars 1804 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:45,280 Speaker 4: that he wants to put in place. You know, it's 1805 01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:48,519 Speaker 4: it's insulting that he that the Democrats still do this 1806 01:31:48,680 --> 01:31:53,400 Speaker 4: little We don't want our constituents to have to pay 1807 01:31:53,720 --> 01:31:58,559 Speaker 4: for that those high gas prices set by Opek. Okay, well, 1808 01:31:58,600 --> 01:32:03,519 Speaker 4: then negotiate, get a good president like President Trump who. 1809 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:04,719 Speaker 2: Knows the art of the deal. 1810 01:32:05,640 --> 01:32:09,200 Speaker 4: You don't get to tell those same constituents, oh, so 1811 01:32:09,640 --> 01:32:12,000 Speaker 4: here's what you're going to do.

You know, this time of year isn't 1868 01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:29,960 Speaker 4: always pleasant for everyone. As we know, we have people 1869 01:35:30,040 --> 01:35:32,320 Speaker 4: with who've lost someone in our chat lost a child 1870 01:35:32,439 --> 01:35:35,160 Speaker 4: this year. It's their first Christmas without that child. Our 1871 01:35:35,160 --> 01:35:36,800 Speaker 4: heart's got out to them. But what she did, I 1872 01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:40,240 Speaker 4: thought was so amazing. She's going through a terrible divorce, 1873 01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:42,320 Speaker 4: so her children are sort of alienated from her in 1874 01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:44,040 Speaker 4: this moment, and she feels it's better. 1875 01:35:43,920 --> 01:35:46,120 Speaker 2: For them that they are. So what she did is 1876 01:35:46,160 --> 01:35:47,719 Speaker 2: she went and got a foster baby. 1877 01:35:48,280 --> 01:35:50,760 Speaker 4: And brought him home for Christmas, and she took him 1878 01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:52,960 Speaker 4: to see Santa Claus yesterday. This woman is my age 1879 01:35:53,000 --> 01:35:55,400 Speaker 4: and she or she's with this baby, taking care of him. 1880 01:35:55,320 --> 01:35:55,920 Speaker 2: Giving him love. 1881 01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:59,719 Speaker 4: He has burns on him, he has horrible cuts on him. Drug, 1882 01:36:00,560 --> 01:36:03,240 Speaker 4: you know, withdrawals, the whole thing. But what a wonderful 1883 01:36:03,280 --> 01:36:06,240 Speaker 4: way to celebrate Christmas. And what would have otherwise been 1884 01:36:06,320 --> 01:36:09,000 Speaker 4: perhaps an empty Christmas for her right she filled it 1885 01:36:09,080 --> 01:36:12,200 Speaker 4: instead by loving someone else. And I'm just so proud 1886 01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:13,360 Speaker 4: of her for that, and I just think it was 1887 01:36:13,360 --> 01:36:16,639 Speaker 4: such an inspiring way to handle her loneliness this Christmas anyway, 1888 01:36:16,960 --> 01:36:19,280 Speaker 4: great show you guys today as. 1889 01:36:19,160 --> 01:36:20,960 Speaker 2: Always, Thank you for joining us.
